The present study investigates the association between sleep in late adolescence and completion of upper secondary school.
The data are drawn from the youth@hordaland study, a large population-based study conducted in 2012, linked with official educational data in Norway (N = 8838).
High school dropout was more prevalent among adolescents who had insomnia (20.6%) compared to those without insomnia (14.3%; adjusted risk ratios = 1.50; 95% confidence intervals: [2.19-2.92]). There was also a higher rate of school dropout among those who had symptoms of delayed sleep-wake phase (21%) compared to those without delayed sleep-wake phase (14.3%); adjusted risk ratios = 1.43, 95% confidence intervals: (1.28-1.59). School noncompleters were also characterized by reporting 44 minutes shorter sleep duration, longer sleep onset latency, and wake after sleep onset (both approx. 15 minutes) compared to school completers.
The importance of sleep for high school dropout rates highlights the importance of including sleep as a risk indicator and a possible target for preventive interventions in late adolescence.
本研究调查了青少年晚期的睡眠与完成高中教育之间的关系。
本数据来自于 2012 年进行的一项大型基于人群的青年@霍达兰研究，该研究与挪威的官方教育数据相关联（N=8838）。
与无失眠症的青少年（14.3%）相比，失眠症青少年的高中辍学率更高（20.6%；调整后的风险比=1.50；95%置信区间：[2.19-2.92]）。与无睡眠-觉醒时相延迟症状的青少年（14.3%）相比，有睡眠-觉醒时相延迟症状的青少年的辍学率也更高（21%）；调整后的风险比=1.43，95%置信区间：（1.28-1.59）。与完成学业的青少年相比，未完成学业的青少年还表现出睡眠时间缩短 44 分钟，入睡潜伏期延长和睡眠后觉醒时间延长（均约 15 分钟）。
睡眠对高中辍学率的重要性强调了将睡眠作为风险指标纳入其中的重要性，以及在青少年晚期将睡眠作为可能的预防干预目标的重要性。
