大约25%的儿童在童年时期的某个阶段会经历某种类型的睡眠问题。多项研究调查了大量健康的、正常发育的儿童和青少年样本中父母及儿童所报告的睡眠问题的发生率；其中许多研究还进一步阐明了睡眠中断与行为问题之间的关联。睡眠问题在患有慢性疾病、神经发育障碍和精神疾病的儿童和青少年中更为普遍。需要注意的是，儿童时期正常睡眠模式、睡眠需求和睡眠障碍的定义必须考虑到儿童期和青春期广泛的正常发育和生理成熟变化，以及文化、环境和社会影响。
Approximately 25% of all children experience some type of sleep problem at some point during childhood. A number of studies have examined the prevalence of parent- and child-reported sleep complaints in large samples of healthy, typically developing children and adolescents; many of these have also further delineated the association between disrupted sleep and behavioral concerns. Sleep problems are even more prevalent in children and adolescents with chronic medical, neurodevelopmental, and psychiatric conditions. It is important to note that definitions of normal sleep patterns, sleep requirements, and sleep disorders in childhood must necessarily incorporate the wide range of normal developmental and physical maturational changes across childhood and adolescence, and cultural, environmental, and social influences.
