Although our sample size was large enough to test for our predictions, not all of them were totally confirmed.
If the sample size was large enough, I could allow state fixed effects to vary with both gender and race.

First, the sample size was large, and in comparison to other studies, our study has the highest number of participants in any single institution.
Because our sample size was large, the study was potentially overpowered, leading to significance in results that may not otherwise be significant.
