睡眠质量和身体活动之间的关系是双向的，但之前对老年人的研究主要集中在调查增加身体活动水平是否会导致睡眠质量的改善。目前的纵向研究通过在两年内两次评估 426 名社区老年人（年龄 61-100 岁）的睡眠质量和身体活动来检验这两种方向关系。一项交叉滞后面板分析，包括年龄、性别、感知压力、功能能力和慢性健康状况的严重程度作为协变量，结果表明，更好的初始睡眠质量预示着以后的身体活动水平更高，超出了先前身体活动的影响；而在考虑了之前的睡眠质量后，最初的体力活动并不能预测后来的睡眠质量。这些发现强调睡眠质量是老年人身体活跃生活方式的重要因素。
The relationship between sleep quality and physical activity is bidirectional, yet prior research on older adults has mainly focused on investigating whether increasing levels of physical activity leads to improvements in sleep quality. The current longitudinal study examined both directional relationships by assessing sleep quality and physical activity twice over a two-year period among 426 community-dwelling older adults (ages 61-100). A cross-lagged panel analysis that included age, gender, perceived stress, functional ability, and severity of chronic health conditions as covariates, revealed that better initial sleep quality predicted higher levels of later physical activity beyond the effects of prior physical activity; whereas initial physical activity did not predict later sleep quality after accounting for prior sleep quality. These findings highlight sleep quality as an important contributor to a physically active lifestyle among older adults.
