  1. Negative aging stereotypes raise the risk of clinical insomnia in humans (OR = 1.56, 95%CI = 1.26-1.95, p < .001).

    “greater endorsement of negative stereotypes regarding emotional aging was associated with significantly greater odds of screening positive for clinical insomnia (OR = 1.56, 95%CI = 1.26-1.95, p < .001)”
