Abstract: Commute time is significantly associated with actigraphy-measured sleep duration and regularity among Hispanic/Latino adults. Interventions to shorten commute times should be evaluated to help improve sleep habits in this minority population.

“…Commuting time has been found to be linearly related to sleep duration on delay to work (Petrov et al, 2018). Compared with short commutes, individuals with moderate commutes were found to have greater sleep duration variability in the same study.…”

“…As most prior studies on commuting time and health behaviours have been cross-sectional and not examined the associations by length of working hours, those findings and ours are not directly comparable. However, prior cross-sectional studies from the USA have reported associations between longer commuting times and shorter sleep duration,6 7 and one Swedish study has also reported associations between commuting 30–60 min/day by car or >60 min/day by public transportation and poor perceived sleep quality,8 while adjusting for working hours. These findings are in line with ours for sleep problems, though the associations were observed only among those with longer than normal working hours.…”
