Multiple regression model for the prediction of log dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS) in African-American women aged 49 – 65 years. Data presented are correlation coefficients (β-coef) and associated standard error (S.E.) and P-values for each factor in the model. Model statistics show the final number of observations (N), the predictive value of the model (Adj. R2) and associated P-value
