  1. N = number of subjects with information of the questionnaire-derived variable outcome (i.e., not missing value). Adjusting for the following covariates: age, body mass index, season of the year in which the actigraphy recording was collected, number of recording days, number of free and workdays in the recording, per-subject total sleep time, per-subject wake after sleep onset, per-subject sleep onset latency, and per-subject number of awakenings.
  2. srh4, self-rated health; diet, self-reported diet; nap, self-reported nap; napf, self-reported nap frequency; exercise, self-reported exercise; exercise_freq, self-reported exercise frequency.
  3. Statistically significant values (p-value < 0.05) are in bold.
