背景：现有的研究表明，睡眠问题是普遍存在于青年内化障碍。然而，儿童睡眠问题在一般人群中很常见，很少有数据可以检查儿童和青少年非临床样本中睡眠，特定类型的焦虑和抑郁症状之间的独特关系。研究方法：在社区儿童和青少年样本（N=175）中，研究了与焦虑和抑郁症状、年龄和性别相关的睡眠问题。性别基于成人文献的新发现，我们还研究了认知偏差和睡眠问题之间的联系。结果如下：总体研究结果显示，睡眠问题与焦虑和抑郁症状之间存在显着关联，尽管结果因年龄而异。在青少年中，抑郁症状与睡眠问题有更大的关联，而焦虑症状通常与所有青少年的睡眠问题有关。与焦虑和抑郁相关的认知因素（认知错误和控制信念）也与青少年的睡眠问题有关，尽管在控制了内化症状后，这些相关性不再显著。结论：结果进行了讨论，他们的研究和治疗的睡眠和内化障碍的青年。抑郁和焦虑26.503-512，2009。2008年发布Wiley-Liss，Inc.
Background: Existing research indicates sleep problems to be prevalent in youth with internalizing disorders. However, childhood sleep problems are common in the general population and few data are available examining unique relationships between sleep, specific types of anxiety and depressive symptoms among non-clinical samples of children and adolescents. Methods: The presence of sleep problems was examined among a community sample of children and adolescents (N=175) in association with anxiety and depressive symptoms, age, and. gender Based on emerging findings from the adult literature we also examined associations between cognitive biases and sleep problems. Results: Overall findings revealed significant associations between sleep problems and both anxiety and depressive symptoms, though results varied by age. Depressive symptoms showed a greater association with sleep problems among adolescents, while anxiety symptoms were generally associated with sleep problems in all youth. Cognitive factors (cognitive errors and control beliefs) linked with anxiety and depression also were associated with sleep problems among adolescents, though these correlations were no longer significant after controlling for internalizing symptoms. Conclusions: Results are discussed in terms of their implications for research and treatment of sleep and internalizing disorders in youth. Depression and Anxiety 26.503-512, 2009.
