What a load of psychobabble. Sleep apnea also affects overweight people more than those who are not. Did the study cross-screen for overweight subjects in addition to race? If the black participants were heavier, than it is likely that their quality of sleep was not as good as the whites’.

They didn’t even consider whether there could be genetic differences between the races.

Did they also screen for prior or current drug use/abuse- or financial status (the poor tend not to sleep as well)- or lifestyle activities (those who excersize m ore tend to sleep better) Etc Etc Etc-

The damnable thing about ‘studies’ is that you can control them to say whatever you want by hiding certain facts about the studies-
