目的：虽然攻击和暴力仍然是一个长期的社会问题，睡眠-觉醒调节在社会行为中的作用，如攻击已被严重忽视。作为回应，我们的目标是整合跨学科的证据，表明各种形式的睡眠中断会释放攻击性冲动并助长暴力。方法：在叙述性综述中，我们概述了从睡眠中断到攻击性的3种影响途径，涉及情感，认知和反应控制过程。我们还考虑了睡眠中断和攻击之间的相互影响，以及审查3个领域，睡眠中断可能对攻击和暴力产生特别重要的影响，并提供干预的机会。结果如下：该审查表明，睡眠问题可能是攻击的重要因素，特别是在涉及亲密伴侣暴力，学校和网络欺凌以及精神病和惩教机构内的机构攻击的领域。结论：审查的证据对于理解和预防社会中的冲突和暴力具有重要的理论和应用意义。最后，它呼吁针对睡眠在攻击性和社会行为中的作用进行急需的研究。
Objective: Although aggression and violence remain a perennial social problem, the role that sleep-wake regulation plays in social behavior like aggression has been severely neglected. In response, we aim to integrate cross-disciplinary evidence to suggest that various forms of sleep disruption release aggressive impulses and fuel violence. Method: In a narrative review, we outline 3 pathways of influence from sleep disruption to aggression that involve compromised affective, cognitive, and response-control processes. We also consider the reciprocal influences between sleep disruption and aggression, as well as review 3 domains where sleep disruption may have especially important effects on aggression and violence and provide opportunities for intervention. Results: The review reveals that sleep problems may be important contributors to aggression, especially in the domains involving intimate partner violence, school and cyber bullying, and institutional aggression within psychiatric and correctional institutions. Conclusion: Reviewed evidence has essential theoretical and applied importance for understanding and preventing conflict and violence in society. Finally, it calls for much-needed research targeting the role of sleep in aggression and social behavior.
