Note: Results from models with robust standard errors reported. Bold indicates a significant within‐person or between‐person association between negative mood and sleep. PC = person‐centered. Weekend coded 0 = weekday, 1 = weekend; Pain coded 0 = no, 1 = yes; Sex coded 0 = female, 1 = male; Race/ethnicity coded 0 = White/European American, 1 = racial/ethnic minority.
