Short sleep duration in prevalent and persistent psychological distress in young adults: the DRIVE study.
OBJECTIVES Young people are sleeping less . Short sleep duration has a range of negative consequences including a hypothesized link with psychological distress , which has yet to be studied DESIGN Prospect i ve cohort study SETTING Community-based sample from Australia PARTICIPANTS Twenty thous and ( 20,822 ) young adults ( aged 17 - 24 ) identified through the state vehicle licensing authority . A r and om sample ( n = 5000 ) was approached for follow-up 12 - 18 months later , with 2837 providing full data . MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE Psychological distress , determined by a Kessler 10 score > 21 , at baseline ; and as both onset and persistence of distress at follow-up . RESULTS Shorter sleep duration was linearly associated with prevalent psychological distress : relative risk ( RR ) 1.14 ( 95 % CI 1.12 to 1.15 ) . Only the very short ( < 5 h ) sleepers among those not distressed at baseline had an increased risk for onset of psychological distress ( RR 3.25 [ 95 % CI 1.84 , 5.75 ] ) . Of 945 cohort participants reporting psychological distress at baseline , 419 ( 44 % ) were distressed at follow-up . Each hour less of sleep increased the risk of psychological distress persisting after adjustment for potential confounding variables : RR 1.05 ( 95 % CI 1.01 to 1.10 ) . Long sleep duration showed no association with distress at any time point . CONCLUSIONS Self-reported shorter sleep duration is linearly associated with prevalent and persistent psychological distress in young adults . In contrast , only the very short sleepers had a raised risk of new onset of distress . Different approaches to sleep duration measurement yield different results and should guide any interventions to improve subjective sleep duration in young adults
