Sleep problems are associated with many different forms of psychopathology in late life; however, there is currently a gap in the literature on the association between sleep quality and hoarding in older adults. This secondary data analysis of 40 older adults with hoarding disorder examined the association between sleep and hoarding, change in sleep disturbance following treatment, and the impact of sleep on treatment response. Sleep disturbance was correlated with hoarding severity, and this association remained significant when controlling for inability to sleep in a bed due to clutter in a multiple regression analysis. Following treatment, there was no change in sleep disturbance using a paired -test, and baseline sleep disturbance was not correlated with change in hoarding severity. Future studies on the potential impact of sleep disturbance on hoarding treatment in older adults should examine if targeting sleep issues adjunctively could lead to improved sleep and improved treatment adherence/efficacy.
睡眠问题与老年人的许多不同形式的精神病理学有关；然而，目前关于老年人睡眠质量与囤积症之间的关联的文献还存在空白。本项对 40 名囤积症患者的二次数据分析检查了睡眠与囤积症之间的关联、治疗后睡眠障碍的变化，以及睡眠对治疗反应的影响。睡眠障碍与囤积症严重程度相关，在多回归分析中控制因杂物而无法在床上入睡的能力后，这种关联仍然显著。使用配对检验，治疗后睡眠障碍没有变化，基线睡眠障碍与囤积症严重程度的变化没有相关性。未来对老年人睡眠障碍对囤积症治疗潜在影响的研究应检查，如果辅助性地解决睡眠问题是否可以改善睡眠和提高治疗的依从性/疗效。
