“…For instance, studies have also found that sleep increased in quality and duration in older adults (Grandner et al, 2012;Ohayon et al, 2004). Moreover, a recent study conducted by Fox et al (2018) found that sleep debt (the cumulative effect of not getting enough sleep) actually decreased with age, counter to conventional wisdom that would mirror prior research that sleep gets worse as one ages (e.g. Ohayon et al, 2004).…”

“…However, based on previous findings (e.g. Durrence & Lichstein, 2006;Fox et al, 2018;Grandner et al, 2013;Krishnan & Collop, 2006), we expected to find that demographic factors differentially predicted sleep attitudes, and would interact with sleep attitudes in predicting sleep outcomes.…”

“…Whinnery, Jackson, Rattanaumpawan, and Grandner (2014) found that Hispanic/Latinos in their sample were 3.5 times as likely to be considered a very short sleeper (<5 h), while those who identified as Asian were 5 times as likely. Additionally, Fox et al (2018) found that participants who identified as Latino/a were more likely to have sleep debt than other races/ethnicities.…”

“…Ohayon et al, 2004). Fox et al (2018) theorize that their findings may highlight how older adults are more likely to have more control over their sleep, in part due to fewer environmental barriers interfering with sleep (i.e. children, working less, etc.).…”

Objectives: Sleep health is becoming more widely accepted as a possible preventative strategy against chronic disease and negative psychosocial outcomes. It is important to understand whether attitudes towards sleep vary by demographic characteristics and how potential differences in sleep attitudes could impact sleep outcomes. The present study examined whether there were demographic differences in sleep attitudes and whether the interaction between demographic characteristics and sleep attitudes impacted sleep outcomes (e.g. sleep hygiene, duration, and quality). Methods: One hundred seventy-two adults from across the United States completed an anonymous survey on sleep and health. Results: Sleep attitudes varied according to age, gender, and race, with more positive sleep attitudes reported by older adults, women, and those who identified as White. Although positive sleep attitudes predicted more sleep and better quality sleep, this association varied as a function of several demographic characteristics. A more complex picture arose for the interaction between demographics and sleep attitudes predicting sleep outcomes. Conclusions: Future research should continue to discover for whom favorable sleep attitudes are beneficial and explore when and how sleep attitudes may be altered.

“…Inadequate amount of sleep is a universal characteristic of contemporary culture. 1 Besides, insufficient sleep in healthcare workers can lead to medical errors and questions on the professional liability of those who were aware of their reduced sleeping hours. 2,3 The current article will explore some theories in healthcare organizations which unwillingly have conducted to altered sleep patterns in healthcare workers.…”

Healthcare organizations and sleep deprivation. Is adequate sleep still granted to healthcare workers?

Modern-day healthcare organizations strive to provide sufficient protection to healthcare workers concerning their time of recovery sleep. Instead, the progressive reduction of staff, the problem of filling temporary vacancies and rotas, and the urgent requirements of oncalls put extra stress on healthcare workers who might borrow time from their sleep hours to stretch their working time. However, this organizational habit might impact on professional liability of healthcare workers who cannot get enough sleep while involuntarily making them more vulnerable to professional errors. The current article examines the theories that link productivity to working hours and recovery sleep in the healthcare services.

Objectives The present study investigated the relationships between sleep (sleep duration and need for additional sleep time in the morning), chronotype, work-related stress, and negative affect in daytime workers. Furthermore, it was examined whether a flexible start of work moderates these relationships. Methods A cross-sectional online study was conducted. Participants were 438 (247 female) daytime workers between 18 and 73 years (mean = 37.68, standard deviation = 12.39). The questionnaire included the “sleep duration” subscale of the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), the Morningness–Eveningness Questionnaire (MEQ), two subscales of the Trier Inventory for the Assessment of Chronic Stress (TICS), the negative affect scale of the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS), questions regarding how many minutes participants would like to sleep longer in the morning, and how flexible their start of work is. Results Short sleep duration and a greater need for additional sleep in the morning were significantly associated with late chronotype. Shorter sleep duration, a greater need for additional sleep, and a late chronotype were associated with higher work-related stress and negative affect. A flexible start of work moderated these relationships: People with longer sleep duration, less need for additional sleep time, and an early chronotype showed lower stress and negative affect levels when having a flexible start of work. A flexible start of work showed no or negative effects on workers with shorter sleep duration, a greater need for additional sleep time, or a late chronotype. Conclusions The effect of a flexible start of work for daytime worker’s well-being depends on a person’s individual sleep timing and chronotype.
