The current study examines the association between parental support and adolescent sleep under varying levels of family stress. Participants included 316 adolescents (M = 16.40 years, 43% male) and their parents (M = 45.67 years, 91% mothers) from diverse ethnic backgrounds. Both adolescents and parents completed questionnaires and adolescents wore wrist actigraphs and completed self-reports on their sleep for 7 consecutive days. Results indicated that under contexts of family stress, more parental support was linked to longer sleep duration, less sleep variability, and less time spent awake during the night. Findings suggest that under contexts of family stress, cohesive family relationships may provide a sense of stability and security that is necessary for healthful sleep.
本研究考察了在不同家庭压力水平下，父母支持与青少年睡眠之间的关系。参与者包括 316 名青少年（M=16.40 岁，43%为男性）及其来自不同种族背景的父母（M=45.67 岁，91%为母亲）。青少年和父母都完成了问卷调查，青少年佩戴腕部活动记录仪并连续 7 天自我报告睡眠情况。结果表明，在家庭压力的背景下，更多的父母支持与更长的睡眠时间、更少的睡眠变异性以及夜间醒来的时间更少有关。研究结果表明，在家庭压力的背景下，紧密的家庭关系可能提供一种稳定和安全的感觉，这对于健康的睡眠是必要的。
