Poor sleep quality has been tied to worse social cognition. Social cognitive deficits have been noted in those with high schizotypy. Yet, no study has assessed whether schizotypy moderates the relationship between sleep quality and social cognition, which may be vital to our understanding of contributors to social functioning. We conducted a cross-sectional analysis of associations of sleep quality and social cognition, with potential moderation by schizotypy. Participants ( n = 906) completed self-report measures of schizotypy, sleep quality, and social cognition. Levels of schizotypy significantly moderated some of the relationships between sleep and social cognition. For participants low in total or interpersonal schizotypy, worse sleep quality was associated with worse theory of mind scores. For participants low in total, disorganized, or cognitive perceptual schizotypy, worse sleep quality was associated with worse self-reported cognitive empathy. For those high in these facets of schizotypy, worse sleep quality was associated with better self-reported cognitive empathy. These results suggest that the individual facets of schizotypy provide additional information and, therefore, are important to assess when examining social cognition and sleep.
睡眠质量差与较差的社会认知有关。那些高精神分裂症倾向的人已经注意到社会认知缺陷。然而，没有研究评估精神分裂症倾向是否会调节睡眠质量和社会认知之间的关系，这对于我们理解社交功能的贡献因素可能至关重要。我们进行了一项横断面分析，研究了睡眠质量和社会认知之间的关联，以及精神分裂症倾向的潜在调节作用。参与者（n=906）完成了精神分裂症倾向、睡眠质量和社会认知的自我报告测量。精神分裂症倾向水平显著调节了睡眠和社会认知之间的一些关系。对于总体或人际精神分裂症倾向较低的参与者，较差的睡眠质量与较差的心理理论得分相关。对于总体、组织混乱或认知知觉精神分裂症倾向较低的参与者，较差的睡眠质量与较差的自我报告认知同理心相关。对于那些在这些精神分裂症倾向方面较高的参与者，较差的睡眠质量与较好的自我报告认知同理心相关。这些结果表明，精神分裂症倾向的各个方面提供了额外的信息，因此，在检查社会认知和睡眠时，评估这些方面很重要。
