描述对符合疗养院条件的社区老年人白天嗜睡和沿着的感知和信念，以及主观和客观的白天睡眠特征。混合方法研究我们进行了半结构化访谈，并通过活动记录仪、睡眠日记和埃普沃思嗜睡量表（ESS）测量睡眠变量。午睡被定义为>10分钟;任何少于被认为是打瞌睡。最终样本（n = 40）主要为女性（85%）、黑人（100%），平均年龄为72 ± 9.5岁。少数（25%）报告白天嗜睡（ESS >10）。然而，平均每天午睡时间为33.1 ± 11.5分钟，午睡频率为2.5 ± 1.5次。我们的样本在一天中经常小睡，但大多数人报告白天没有嗜睡。这些老年人并不总是认识到小睡或他们小睡了多久。
To describe perceptions and beliefs about daytime sleepiness and napping along with subjective and objective daytime sleep characteristics in nursing-home eligible community dwelling older adults. A mixed methods study; we conducted semi-structured interviews and measured sleep variables via Actigraphy, sleep diary, and Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS). Napping was defined as >10 minutes; anything less was considered dozing. Final sample (n = 40) was primarily female (85%), Black (100%), with a mean age of 72 ± 9.5 years. Few (25%) reported daytime sleepiness (ESS >10). However, average duration of napping per day was 33.1 ± 11.5 minutes with a nap frequency of 2.5 ± 1.5 naps. Our sample napped frequently throughout the day, yet the majority reported no daytime sleepiness. These older adults did not always recognize napping or how much they napped.
