前言:参与欺凌行为与青少年的负面健康后果有关。最近的研究表明,欺凌与睡眠障碍有关。本研究的目的是考察欺凌受害者、欺负者和没有参与欺凌的青少年在睡眠障碍(睡前恐惧、失眠、睡眠障碍)方面的差异,以及不同类型欺凌行为(言语、身体、社交、网络)的差异。方法:美国14-17岁(平均16.0岁)的高中生(n=885;57.3%女性;87.5%的白人)完成了《儿童睡眠模式报告》,并提出了关于参与言语、身体、社交和网络欺凌的问题。结果:所有这三种睡眠障碍在不同群体中都存在差异,受害者和欺凌受害者报告的睡眠障碍比欺凌受害者和未参与欺凌的青少年更多。在所有欺凌类型中都发现了类似的模式,受害者和欺凌受害者的睡眠障碍更多。结论:这项横断面研究的结果强调了筛查青少年睡眠障碍的重要性,这些睡眠障碍可能表明白天存在欺凌或欺凌问题,以及需要进行纵向研究来阐明睡眠和欺凌/欺凌之间的潜在途径。
Introduction: Involvement in bullying is associated with negative health outcomes for adolescents. Recent studies suggest that bullying is related to sleep disturbances. The purpose of this study was to examine differences in sleep disturbances (bedtime fears, insomnia, parasomnias) between victims, bullies, and youth not involved in bullying, as well as to explore differences across various types of bullying behavior (verbal, physical, social, cyber).Methods: High school students ages 14-17 years (mean = 16.0) in the United States (n = 885; 57.3% female; 87.5% White) completed The Children's Report of Sleep Patterns and questions about involvement in verbal, physical, social and cyberbullying.Results: Differences in all three sleep disturbances were found across groups, with victims and bully-victims reporting more sleep disturbances than bullies and youth not involved. A similar pattern was found across all bullying types, with more sleep disturbances for victims and bullyvictims.Conclusions: The results of this cross-sectional study highlight the importance of screening youth for sleep disturbances that may indicate daytime issues with bullying or victimization, as well as the need for longitudinal studies to elucidate potential pathways between sleep and bullying/victimization.
