Data presented are coefficients and 95% CIs in parentheses. Wave is coded 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 to represent each 6-month follow-up, and thus the wave coefficients are interpreted as change in BMI per 6 months. Sleep is modeled in hours per day, and thus the sleep coefficients are interpreted as the change in BMI for each additional hour spent sleeping.

a

Adjusted for gender.

b

Adjusted for gender, race, and maternal education.

c

Adjusted for gender, race, maternal education, and MVPA.

d

Adjusted for gender, race, maternal education, MVPA, and screen time.
