本研究探讨了幼儿期持续注意力发展的个体差异，以及这些个体差异与语言和睡眠发展的关系。幼儿（N = 314; 54%男性）在30个月，36个月和42个月时进行了评估，使用多种措施的注意力，标准化的语言评估，和睡眠活动测量。幼儿80%是白色。采用Hollingshead四因素指数计算家庭社会经济状况，范围为13 - 66（M = 47.59，SD = 14.13）。目的是：1）检查不同情况下的注意力指标之间的关联，信息提供者和时间，2）考虑语言和睡眠对注意力的独立和交互影响，3）测试睡眠和注意力之间潜在的双向关联。研究结果显示，注意力指标随着时间的推移保持稳定，但在42个月时相互之间的联系很弱。注意力始终与语言联系在一起。随着时间的推移，更多变的睡眠和更长的午睡与持续注意力的增长较少有关。夜间睡眠持续时间与语言互动，睡眠持续时间与语言水平较低的幼儿的注意力得分呈正相关，即使在社会经济地位得到控制的情况下。研究结果描述了持续注意力如何发展的一个未充分研究的方面，涉及一致的睡眠时间表的主要影响以及睡眠量和儿童语言发展的相互作用。这些发现有助于了解儿童早期出现注意力问题的风险，并探索家庭睡眠实践中的潜在预防目标。
The present study examined individual differences in the development of sustained attention across toddlerhood, as well as how these individual differences related to the development of language and sleep. Toddlers (N = 314; 54% male) were assessed at 30, 36, and 42 months using multiple measures of attention, a standardized language assessment, and actigraphic measures of sleep. Toddlers were 80% White. Family socioeconomic status was calculated using the Hollingshead Four Factor Index and ranged from 13 to 66 (M = 47.59, SD = 14.13). Aims were 1) to examine associations between measures of attention across situations, informants, and time, 2) to consider the independent and interactive effects of language and sleep on attention, and 3) to test potential bidirectional associations between sleep and attention. Findings showed attention measures were stable across time but were only weakly linked with each other at 42 months. Attention was consistently linked with language. More variable sleep and longer naps were associated with less growth in sustained attention across time. Nighttime sleep duration interacted with language in that sleep duration was positively associated with attention scores among toddlers with less advanced language, even when socioeconomic status was controlled. The findings describe an understudied aspect of how sustained attention develops, involving the main effect of consistent sleep schedules and the interaction effect of amount of sleep and child language development. These findings are relevant to understanding early childhood risk for developing attention problems and to exploring a potential prevention target in family sleep practices.
