“…This was borne out by the results: decreased sleep quality, negative mood, and increased Insomnia Severity Index scores correlated with depressive and state and trait anxiety symptoms, whereas it seemed that sleep and working hours did not allow to provide further indications. Thus, our data fit well into the broad body of research in psychiatry which underlines the close relationship between sleep disorders and generalised 14) , specific 15) , or state-trait anxiety disorders 16) and depression 13) . Furthermore, our data provide evidence that the mere registration of sleep time is not sufficient to reliably indicate work-related sleep disturbances, confirming the findings of Nishikitani et al 2) .…”

“…Taken together, these findings hold that work-related psychological factors have adverse impact on sleep. It is interesting to note that despite well documented scientific evidence of the close association between sleep disorders and depression 13) , generalised 14) , specific 15) , or state-trait anxiety disorders 16) , the majority of research into sleep disturbances and working conditions has not taken into account psychiatric factors such as these (although for a notable exception see 10) ).…”

Objective: Good and sufficient sleep is crucial for a good quality of life. We investigated the associations between sleep patterns, work, and strain among students of hospitality and tourism. Methods: 92 students completed psychological and sleep-related questionnaires, and a sleep/work log for one week. Results: Sleeping hours were inversely correlated with working hours. Decreased sleep quality was associated with increased scores of strain, depression and anxiety. Participants with increased working hours were 3.2 times more likely to report heightened insomnia scores than those with lower weekly working hours. Working on weekends was associated with increased strain with family life and peers. Conclusions: In hospitality and tourism, the employees' 'personal costs' for a 24/7 service may be underestimated; unfavourable work schedules are linked with decreased sleep quality, symptoms of depression, anxiety, and with social problems.

“…52,53 Both animal and human research found strong bidirectional associations between alterations in sleep and regulation of the HPA axis. 25,[54][55][56] Activation of the HPA axis has been associated with sleep problems such as night waking, disturbed sleep, and sleeplessness. [23][24][25] Secondly, stress from bullying may not only lead to physiologic hyperarousal but also to the continuation of processing of threat information, which may interfere with sleep patterns.…”

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Environmental factors such as serious trauma or abuse and related stress can lead to nightmares or night terrors. Being bullied can be very distressing for children, and victims display long-term social, psychological, and health consequences. Unknown is whether being bullied by peers may increase the risk for experiencing parasomnias such as nightmares, night terrors, or sleepwalking. METHODS: A total of 6796 children of the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) birth cohort were interviewed at elementary school age (8 and 10 years) about bullying experiences with a previously validated bullying interview and at secondary school age (12.9 years) about parasomnias such as nightmares, night terrors and sleepwalking by trained postgraduate psychologists. RESULTS: Even after adjusting for pre-existing factors related to bullying and parasomnias, being bullied predicted having nightmares (8 years odds ratio [OR], 1.23; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.05–1.44; 10 years OR, 1.62; 95% CI, 1.35–1.94) or night terrors (8 years OR, 1.39; 95% CI, 1.10–1.75; 10 years OR, 1.53; 95% CI, 1.18–1.98) at age 12 to 13 years. Especially being a chronic victim was associated with both nightmares (OR, 1.82; 95% CI, 1.46–2.27) and night terrors (OR, 2.01; 95% CI, 1.48–2.74). Being a bully/victim also increased the risk for any parasomnia at ages 8 or 10 years (8 years OR, 1.42; 95% CI, 1.08–1.88; 10 years OR, 1.75; 95% CI, 1.30–2.36). In contrast, bullies had no increased risk for any parasomnias. CONCLUSIONS: Being bullied increases the risk for having parasomnias. Hence, parents, teachers, school counselors, and clinicians may consider asking about bullying experiences if a child is having parasomnias.

Objectives. Sleep EEG spindles are linked to efficient cortical-subcortical connectivity and intellectual abilities. The aim of the present study was to investigate the relationship of spindle activity to psychosocial stress response and coping strategies in healthy kindergarten children. Methods. In a cross-sectional study of 41 5-year old kindergarten children we examined stress-induced hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical (HPA) system activity by saliva cortisol measurements and sleep regulation by sleep EEG-monitoring. Stress response was measured during the application of a standardized psychological challenge appropriate at this age. NREM S2 sleep EEG spindles were visually scored and put into relation to coping and HPA activity parameters.Results. An increased total number ofNREM S2 sleep spindles correlated positively with increased high ego-involvement strategies such as "positive emotions". By contrast, total number ofNREM S2 sleep spindles correlated negatively with low ego-involvement strategies such as "denial" and "avoidance". Stress induced HPA-activity correlated positively with coping strategies with high ego-involvement; while there was no correlation with low ego-involvement strategies. Conclusions. Total number of visually detected NREM S2 sleep spindles is elevated in children with coping involving positive, high ego-involvement; in contrast, low ego-involvement during stress is associated with reduced total number of NREM S2 sleep spindles.
