Association of insomnia symptoms and non-restorative sleep with Typus melancholicus: a Japanese general population survey.

This study aimed to investigate the association between insomnia symptoms and non-restorative sleep (NRS) in individuals with Typus melancholicus, a personality trait linked to depression, in the general population. We analyzed data from a Japanese cross-sectional survey of 2519 randomly sampled adults. Typus melancholicus was evaluated using a modified version of Kasahara's Typus melancholicus inventory (modified-KTM). Logistic regression analysis was used to examine the associations of insomnia symptoms and NRS with modified-KTM scores. We demonstrated that insomnia symptoms and NRS were both positively associated with modified-KTM scores. Our results provide evidence for an association between Typus melancholicus and insomnia.
