Abstract
Healthy sleep is not only the most important source of restoring the body's strength, but also a way to overcome traumatic events and stress, as well as a resource for the effective functioning of the human nervous system. Many studies confirm the relationship between the duration and quality of sleep and the health status of the population. At the same time, in modern conditions, socio-demographic characteristics of the population are of great importance in determining sleep. The main sleep disorders are recognized not only as a reduction in its duration, but also as a deterioration in quality (problems with falling asleep, a feeling of unreconstructed strength). The purpose of this article is to study the quantitative and qualitative characteristics of sleep in the population (including in the context of the main socio-demographic groups), the prevalence of factors of its disorders and their impact on subjective health assessments. The information base was data from monitoring of physical health of the Vologda oblast population in 2020 (n = 1500). The study identified risk categories for quantitative and qualitative sleep disorders; confirmed the relationship of stress factors, noise pollution and poor housing conditions with the frequency of sleep disorders; proved the impact of sleep problems on self-assessment of health.

Summary
DURATION AND QUALITY OF SLEEP OF THE VOLOGDA OBLAST POPULATION: RISK CATEGORIES, FACTORS OF DISTURBANCE AND IMPACT ON HEALTH. Для изучения наиболее распространенных факторов нарушения сна, таких как стресс, повышенный уровень шума и неблагоприятные жилищные условия, использовались соответствующие вопросы анкеты мониторинга. Чей сон в будни длится по 6–7 ч, у 44% его продолжительность в выходные аналогична, тогда как 56% «отсыпаются» в дни отдыха, из них в течение 7–8 ч — 33%, в течение 8 и более ч — 23%. Спящих в обычные дни недели по 7–8 ч, имеют такую же его продолжительность в выходные дни, в то время как 43% «досыпают» на выходных 8 и более ч, и лишь у 5% сон длится менее 7 ч. Интересен пример респондентов с длительным сном в будние дни (8 и более ч): 93% из них имеют такую же продолжительность сна в выходные, и только 7% спят в дни отдыха несколько меньше — по 7–8 ч. Длительный сон в течение всей недели обусловлен как большими временным ресурсами у людей старших возрастных групп (преимущественно пенсионеров), так возрастными особенностями их организма (выше потребность в восстановлении сил организма)
