Abstract
To investigate whether childhood sleep trajectories are associated with mental health symptoms such as social phobia, generalized anxiety, depression, ADHD, conduct problems and opposition at age 15.
A total of 2120 children took part in the Quebec Longitudinal Study of Child Development. Childhood sleep trajectories were computed from maternal reports at 2.5, 3.5, 4, 6, 8, 10 and/or 12 years. At age 15, 1446 adolescents filled out mental health and sleep questions. A path analysis model was assessed in the full sample.
Four childhood nocturnal sleep duration trajectories were identified: 1) a short pattern (7.5%), 2) a short-increasing pattern (5.8%), 3) a 10h pattern (50.7%) and 4) an 11h pattern (36.0%). Three childhood sleep latency trajectories were found: 1) a short pattern (31.7%), 2) an intermediate pattern (59.9%) and 3) a long pattern (8.4%). Finally, two childhood wakefulness after sleep onset trajectories were found: 1) a normative pattern (73.0%) and 2) a long pattern (27.0%). The path analysis model indicated that children following a long childhood sleep latency trajectory were more likely to experience symptoms of depression (β = 0.06, 95% CI: 0.01 to 0.12), ADHD (β = 0.07, 95% CI: 0.02 to 0.13), conduct problems (β = 0.05, 95% CI: 0.00 to 0.10) and opposition (β = 0.08, 95% CI: 0.02 to 0.13) at age 15.
This longitudinal study revealed that children presenting a long sleep latency throughout childhood are at greater risk of symptoms of depression, ADHD, conduct problems and opposition in adolescence.
