Abstract
ABSTRACTThis study examined the association between the sleep environment and sleep disturbances in 44 low-income Latinx youth. Participants reported an average of 2.10 past-week ambient sleep disruptions. Most participants slept in a bed (89%) and at home (93%) seven nights out of the previous week. Past-week ambient sleep disruptions were cross-sectionally associated with insomnia symptoms, daytime sleepiness, bedtime fears/worries, and symptoms of restless legs syndrome. Longitudinal analyses showed a positive association between ambient sleep disruptions and insomnia symptoms and between fewer nights sleeping in a bed and symptoms of restless legs syndrome. Assessing the sleep environment can inform comprehensive interventions.
