Note: Participant N = 191; Day N = 1,261 (up to 7 days per participant); Family member N = 707 (offspring n = 454; parent n = 253). VAR = variance.

^a0 = offspring generation, 1 = parent generation.

^b0 = female, 1 = male.

^c1 = poor, 2 = fair, 3 = good, 4 = very good, 5 = excellent.

^d0 = non-Hispanic white, 1 = racial/ethnic minority.

^eDistance in miles using a log transformation.
