“…Furthermore, the sleep disturbance component is sensitive to variability over time (Buysse et al, 1989), which makes it a particularly appropriate measure for longitudinal analyses. Finally, the sleep quantity and disturbance indicators distinguished healthy controls from clinical samples (i.e., those with sleep, depressive, or posttraumatic stress disorders; Backhaus, Junghanns, Broocks, Riemann, & Hohagen, 2002;Buysse et al, 1989;Calhoun et al, 2007).…”

This study tracked change over time in sleep quantity, disturbance, and timing, and sleep's covariations with living situation, stress, social support, alcohol use, and grade point average (GPA) across four years of university in 186 Canadian students. Women slept longer as they moved through university, and men slept less; rise times were later each year. Students reported sleeping fewer hours, more sleep disturbances, and later rise times during years with higher stress. In years when students lived away from home, they reported more sleep disturbances, later bedtimes, and later rise times. Living on campus was associated with later bedtimes and rise times. Alcohol use was higher and GPA was lower when bedtimes were later. The implications of these observed patterns for understanding the correlates and consequences of university students' sleep are discussed.

“…Of clinical import, sleep fragmentation worsened upper airway collapsibility more than sleep deprivation [74]. These findings may be germane to PTSD patients who commonly suffer sleep fragmentation [11,75]; this fragmentation sometimes manifests predominantly during REM sleep [56,76] and has been demonstrated prospectively in animal models [77].…”

“…Although not assessed in the current study, additional cont ributors to decreased driving performance could be sleep disruption and substance abuse, which are commonly comorbid with PTSD. A growing body of research suggests that PTSD negatively affects sleep [46][47][48]. In one study of OIF/OEF veterans who had various combinations of the "Polytrauma Clinical Triad" of pain, PTSD, and TBI, nearly 9 4 percent of the sample reported trouble falling or staying asleep [49].…”

Abstract-We studied the prevalence and characteristics of selfreported driving difficulties and examined their association with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and/or posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in Operation Iraqi Freedom/Operation Enduring Freedom (OIF/OEF) veterans who were seen at a Department of Veterans Affairs outpatient polytrauma clinic. In this study, we used a brief driving questionnaire and chart reviews to assess the prevalence and characteristics of driving difficulties in the following four groups of patients: TBI only, PTSD only, TBI + PTSD, and Neither (neither TBI nor PTSD). Compared with before deployment, 93% o f OIF/OEF veterans seen in the po lytrauma clinic reported more di fficulties with driving in at least one domai n, with the most common areas of d ifficulty being (1) problems with anger or impatience (82%), (2) general driving difficulties (65%), and (3) experiences with near misses (57%). Patients with PTSD (with or without TBI) reported the most significant driving impairments, whereas respondents with a history of only TBI endorsed driving difficulties similar to veterans without either diagnosis. Qualitative an alysis of veterans' co mments also revealed similar patterns. Self-reported driving problems were common among OIF/OEF returnees. Respondents who had a diagnosis of PTSD (with or without TBI) reported the most severe driving difficulties since returning from deployment. The association between PTSD and driving problems warrants further investigation.
