据报道，情感触摸具有镇静作用；然而，触摸是否与睡眠有关还不是很清楚。在这里，我们调查了不同的触摸变量和自我报告的睡眠指标之间的关系。数据摘自触摸测试，这是一项于2020年进行的横断面调查。分析了来自英国的15,049名健康成年人的样本数据(平均年龄=1，56.13岁，SD=1，13.8岁；女性占75.4%)。参与者被要求将对睡眠的正面、负面或无影响归因于拥抱、抚摸、按摩、亲密接触以及有或没有触摸的睡眠开始。最后一次故意抚摸的时间、抚触的满足感以及童年时经常拥抱和亲吻的床上生活方式都被评估了。测量睡眠质量、持续时间、潜伏期、入睡后觉醒时间和昼夜喜好。数据分析采用卡方检验和Logistic回归分析。睡前的情感抚摸被认为对睡眠有积极影响。最近的触摸是一些睡眠变量的重要预测因子，自上次有意触摸以来的时间跨度更长，与改善睡眠质量、延长睡眠持续时间以及在一些参与者开始睡眠后醒来的时间更短和更少有关。体验过多的触摸与较低的睡眠质量和较高的睡眠开始后醒来的次数有关。这些发现突显了人际接触对主观睡眠质量的重要性。
Affective touch has been reported for its calming effects; however, it is less clear whether touch is associated with sleep. Here, the relationship between different touch variables and self‐reported sleep indicators was investigated. Data were extracted from the Touch Test, a cross‐sectional survey conducted in 2020. Data from a sample of 15,049 healthy adults from the UK (mean age = 56.13, SD = 13.8; 75.4% female) were analysed. Participants were asked to attribute positive, negative, or no effects on sleep to hugs, strokes, massages, intimate touch, and sleep onset with and without touch. The time since last intentional touch, touch amount satisfaction, and childhood bed routine with hugs and kisses were assessed. Sleep quality, duration, latency, wake after sleep onset and diurnal preference were measured. Data were analysed using chi‐square tests and logistic regressions. Affective touch before sleep was perceived to have positive effects on sleep. Touch recency emerged as a significant predictor for some sleep variables, with a longer timespan since the last intentional touch relating to improved sleep quality, longer sleep duration, and shorter and fewer instances of waking up after sleep onset in some participants. Experiencing too much touch was related to lower sleep quality and higher instances of waking up after sleep onset. These findings highlight the importance of interpersonal touch for subjective sleep quality.
