Notice how we did not choose a direction that diabetes would lengthen or shorten sleep. We just said they were associated. So, here on the slide is our hypothesis, and in the little red box, I have a little cheat for you. A reminder of the slope and P value in the final linear regression model for our exposure variable, DIABFLAG. Remember, it was statistically significant because the P value was less than 0.05, but the slope itself was so small. It was only 0.0410, so it was not really clinically significant. So, this is how I'd say it. After controlling for confounding variables, among veterans, having diabetes was…
