Sleep affects the development and severity of psychiatric symptoms in children, and maternal personality traits may influence children's sleep. We aimed to confirm the longitudinal effect of maternal personality traits on children's sleep disturbance using cohort data from the Panel Study on Korean Children.
Maternal personality traits were assessed using the Personality Assessment Inventory in 2009, and the sleep disturbance of children was assessed using parent survey data from 2010 to 2014 (2nd-6th waves). Among the 11 clinical scales of the Personality Assessment Inventory, the 5 scales that showed the most significant correlations were analyzed. Presence or absence of child sleep disturbance was evaluated with a chi-square test, and the effect of the Personality Assessment Inventory was assessed by a binary logistic regression analysis with child sleep disturbance as the dependent variable.
Of the 171 mother-child dyads, 92 were classified into the sleep disturbance group and 79 were classified into the normal sleep group. Maternal somatic concerns showed a significant relationship with children's sleep disturbance at years 2 and 3. Maternal borderline features demonstrated a significant relationship with children's sleep disturbance from years 2 to 5. The binary logistic regression analysis revealed a significant association between high borderline features and children's sleep disturbance at years 2 and 3.
High maternal borderline features evaluated at child age 1 were related to sleep disturbance in early childhood. In assessing a children's sleep problems, it may be important to examine mothers' dysfunctional personality traits.
睡眠会影响儿童精神症状的发展及严重程度,而母亲的人格特质可能会影响孩子的睡眠。我们旨在利用韩国儿童面板研究的队列数据,证实母亲人格特质对儿童睡眠障碍的纵向影响。
2009年使用人格评估量表对母亲的人格特质进行评估,2010年至2014年(第2至6波)使用家长调查数据对儿童的睡眠障碍进行评估。在人格评估量表的11个临床量表中,分析了相关性最显著的5个量表。通过卡方检验评估儿童睡眠障碍的有无,并以儿童睡眠障碍为因变量,通过二元逻辑回归分析评估人格评估量表的影响。
在171对母婴中,92对被归为睡眠障碍组,79对被归为正常睡眠组。母亲的躯体担忧在第2年和第3年与儿童睡眠障碍显示出显著关系。母亲的边缘性特征在第2年至第5年与儿童睡眠障碍显示出显著关系。二元逻辑回归分析显示,高边缘性特征与第2年和第3年儿童睡眠障碍之间存在显著关联。
孩子1岁时评估出的母亲高边缘性特征与幼儿期的睡眠障碍有关。在评估儿童睡眠问题时,检查母亲功能失调的人格特质可能很重要。
