The most common behavioral cause of hypersomnia in children is insufficient sleep. Behavioral causes of insufficient sleep for children, ages six months through 12 years, include inadequate sleep hygiene, bedtime struggles, prolonged sleep onset latency, nighttime fears, and nightmares. Behavioral interventions are efficacious and should be individualized to meet the needs of the child and family. Insufficient sleep affects many areas of child development, including academic, cognitive, and psychosocial, as well as parents and caregivers. Behavioral causes of sleepiness in children are best identified through a clinical interview, sleep diary, and actigraphy.
儿童嗜睡最常见的行为原因是睡眠不足。6 个月至 12 岁儿童睡眠不足的行为原因包括睡眠卫生不足、睡前挣扎、入睡潜伏期延长、夜间恐惧和噩梦。行为干预是有效的，应该根据儿童和家庭的需要进行个体化。睡眠不足会影响儿童发展的许多方面，包括学业、认知和社会心理，以及父母和照顾者。通过临床访谈、睡眠日记和活动记录仪可以最好地识别儿童嗜睡的行为原因。
