The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in a reorganization of adolescents' routines, especially their sleep schedules. Utilising 175 caregiver-adolescent dyads, the current study examined associations of biological (e.g., prenatal substance use), environmental (e.g., poverty), and relational (e.g., child maltreatment) subtypes of early life adversity (ELA) with various components of adolescents' sleep across the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic. Relational ELA explained unique variance in adolescents' sleep disturbances, but not other sleep components, following short- and longer-term exposure to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the direction of this association switched such that relational ELA predicted decreased sleep disturbances during the initial phase of the U.S. COVID-19 pandemic in spring 2020 beyond pre-pandemic levels, but, over time, contributed to increased sleep disturbances beyond early-pandemic levels as the pandemic extended into the winter of 2020.
新冠疫情导致青少年的日常生活，尤其是睡眠作息发生了重大变化。 本研究利用了 175 对照顾者与青少年的配对数据，调查了儿童早期逆境（ELA）的生物（如产前物质使用）、环境（如贫困）和关系（如儿童虐待）亚型与新冠疫情第一年青少年睡眠的各种成分之间的关联。在短期和长期接触新冠疫情后，关系型 ELA 对青少年睡眠障碍有独特的解释力，但对其他睡眠成分没有影响。然而，这种关联的方向发生了变化，即关系型 ELA 预测了美国新冠疫情于 2020 年春季初期的睡眠障碍会低于疫情前的水平，但随着时间的推移，由于疫情持续到 2020 年冬季，其导致了睡眠障碍高于早期疫情水平。
