Low socioeconomic status (SES) in childhood may be associated with sleep in adulthood. We evaluated the relationships between SES in childhood through adolescence and into adulthood and sleep in midlife men.
Prospective assessment of SES in childhood and adulthood.
Population-based study of 139 Black and 105 White men enrolled since age 7 and evaluated for sleep characteristics at age 32.
Actigraphy and diary measures of sleep duration, continuity, and quality for 1 week. Their parents reported their SES (a combination of educational attainment and occupational status) annually when the boys were ages 7 to 16. We estimated SES intercept (age 7) and slope (age 7 to 16) using M-Plus and conducted linear regression analyses using those values to predict adult sleep measures, adjusting for covariates.
Men who had lower SES families at age 7, smaller increases in SES from ages 7 to 16, and lower SES in adulthood had more minutes awake after sleep onset. White men with greater increases in SES from ages 7 to 16 had shorter sleep.
SES in childhood and improvement in SES through adolescence are related to sleep continuity in midlife men. To our knowledge, this is the first report using prospectively measured SES in childhood in relation to adult sleep.
儿童时期较低的社会经济地位（SES）可能与成年后的睡眠有关。我们评估了儿童时期到青春期再到成年期 SES 与中年男性睡眠之间的关系。
前瞻性评估儿童和成年期 SES。
对 139 名黑人和 105 名白种男性进行的基于人群的研究，这些男性自 7 岁起入组，并在 32 岁时评估睡眠特征。
使用活动记录仪和日记记录了 1 周的睡眠持续时间、连续性和质量。当男孩年龄在 7 至 16 岁时，他们的父母每年报告他们的 SES（受教育程度和职业地位的综合衡量）。我们使用 M-Plus 估计 SES 截距（7 岁）和斜率（7 至 16 岁），并使用这些值进行线性回归分析，以调整协变量来预测成人睡眠指标。
SES 较低的家庭在 7 岁时、SES 从 7 岁到 16 岁的增长较小以及成年后 SES 较低的男性，入睡后清醒时间更长。SES 从 7 岁到 16 岁增长较大的白人男性睡眠较短。
儿童时期的 SES 以及青春期 SES 的改善与中年男性的睡眠连续性有关。据我们所知，这是首次使用前瞻性测量的儿童时期 SES 来评估成年睡眠的报告。
