Note. R/E = racial/ethnic. Reference group is R/E majority members (i.e., Non-Hispanic White) participants. In all models, the following covariates were added in at Level 1 (moment-level): exercise, daytime sleep, alcohol consumption, cigarette use, caffeine consumption, food consumption, and stress level. Daily wake time and bedtime were included as a Level 2 covariate. At Level 3, neuroticism risk, average hours of sleep, SES, oral contraceptives, gender, and age were included as covariates.
