Overall trends in sleep duration (in hours) for white and Black adults age 25-69, weighted by "SAMWEIGHT", the NHIS 2004-2018.

Average sleep duration in the United States declined in recent years, and the decline may be linked with many biopsychosocial factors. We examine how a set of biopsychosocial factors have differentially contributed to the temporal trends in self-reported sleep duration across racial groups between 2004-2005 and 2017–2018. Using repeated nationally...

... Black respondents from the 2004-2005 NHIS, and time period 2 included 19,406 white respondents and 2,833 Black respondents from the 2017-2018 NHIS. We used the first (2004 and 2005) and last two years (2017 and 2018) of the NHIS data in which sleep duration was measured. We focused on these two time periods primarily for parsimonious reasons: as Fig. 1 in Section Results will show, the decline in sleep duration between 2004 and 2018 appeared to be linear for both racial groups. We combined observations in two adjacent years to reduce yearly fluctuations. We conducted sensitivity analyses using different data aggregation strategies (e.g., aggregating the first and last three years' ...
