UNASSIGNED: While important changes in circadian rhythms take place during adolescence and young adulthood, it is unclear how circadian profiles during this period relate to @entity146 . This study aimed to: (i) characterise morningness-eveningness preference in young @entity1 with primary @entity148 , @entity308 , @entity162 as compared to healthy controls, and (ii) to investigate associations between morningness-eveningness preference and the severity of @entity146 symptoms. Four hundred and ninety-six males and females aged between 12 and 30 years were divided into five groups according to primary diagnosis. The Hamilton Depression Rating Scale and the Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale were administered by a research psychologist and @entity1 completed the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale and the Horne-  stberg Morningness-Eveningness Questionnaire (ME). ME scores were significantly lower (i.e. higher levels of "eveningness") in all @entity1 diagnosis subgroups compared to the control group. The @entity716 group had higher ME scores than the @entity308 and @entity148 groups. Compared to the control group, the @entity148 , @entity308 and @entity162 had a significantly higher proportion of "moderate evening" types, with a similar trend for the @entity716 group. The proportion of "extreme evening" types was significantly higher in the @entity148 and @entity308 subgroups than in the control group. Lower ME scores correlated with worse @entity458 in males from the bipolar group. Lower ME scores correlated with higher @entity308 severity in females with @entity308 and in males with @entity162 . These results suggest that young @entity1 with various @entity146 , especially those with @entity1316 , present with a stronger "eveningness" preference and higher rates of evening chronotypes than healthy controls from the same age group. Later chronotypes were generally associated with worse @entity458 and symptoms severity. These associations were modulated by sex and primary diagnosis.
