Abstract
- Objective Adolescents and young adults in the college setting often report poor sleep hygiene and quality. These sleep difficulties may be related to emotion dysregulation, which is highly relevant to broader adjustment. The current study aimed to empirically identify latent groups of healthy college students with distinct subjective sleep patterns and examine differences in emotion dysregulation between subgroups. Methods College students (N = 476; Mage=19.38) completed the Adolescent Sleep–Wake Scale—Revised, Adolescent Sleep Hygiene Scale—Revised, and Difficulties in Emotion Dysregulation Scale. Most participants were White (78%), non-Hispanic/Latinx (85%), and female (77%). Latent profile analysis identified patterns of sleep with maximum likelihood estimation. Bolck–Croon–Hagenaars procedure evaluated differences in emotion dysregulation by class. Results A three-class model had optimal fit, Bayesian information criterion = 11,577.001, Bootstrapped Parametric Likelihood Ratio Test = −5,763.042, p Conclusions Emotion dysregulation differed across three sleep profiles, with participants classified in the good sleep group reporting, on average, the lowest emotion dysregulation, compared to the moderate and poor sleep groups. These findings highlight contextual factors of sleep that may be clinically targeted to promote emotion regulation.
