Model 1: adjusted for age (continuous) and sex (male, female).

Model 2: adjusted for variables in Model 1 and education (less than high school, high school, vocational training or some college, college or higher), household income (<$15,000, $15,000-<$25,000, $25,000-<$50,000, ≥$50,000), marital status (Married, separated, divorced or widowed, never married), and employment status (yes, no). P-for-interaction between sleep duration categories and race: 0.001 for weekday sleep and 0.01 for weekend sleep.

Model 3: adjusted for variables in Model 2 and smoking (current, former, never), alcohol (zero, more than zero but less than one, one or more drinks per day), total physical activity (quartiles), total sitting time (quartiles), BMI (<18.5, 18.5-<25.0, 25.0-<30.0, 30.0-<35.0, 35.0-<40.0, ≥40.0, kg/m2), and history of diabetes (yes, no), hypertension (yes, no), hypercholesterolemia (yes, no) and depression (yes, no).
