  1. Sleep characteristics and behavioral measurements were standardized to a mean of 0 and SD 1, ß coefficients represent change in SD
  2. Model 1 is corrected for age at actigraphy measurement, age at behavioral measurement and sex, model 2 is additionally corrected for gestational age at birth, child national origin, maternal education and maternal psychopathology
  3. *Significant after FDR-BH correction for multiple testing
