Abstract

Sixty-eight families participated in a longitudinal study that included video observations of sleep during the 1st year of life and annual follow-up phone interviews until the children were 4 years of age. Results revealed that approximately 19% of children have a sleep problem at 2 years of age, defined either by research criteria or parental report, and that sleep problems diminished over time. Approximately 25% of children were reported to be cosleeping at each follow-up interview, but only a third of the parents reported this behavior to be problematic. A subgroup of infants (33%), who were considered stable, non-self-soothers in the 1st year, were more likely to have a sleep onset problem and be cosleeping at the 2-year follow-up assessment.

  • Before the age of 3 years, poor sleep quality and shorter sleep durations are predictive of hyperactivity, cognitive deficits and impulsivity at 6 years of age, even in children showing normative sleep in the interim period.

    “Interestingly, before the age of 3 years, poor sleep quality and shorter sleep durations, which could be the result of inconsistent sleep–wake cycles and less-robust circadian rhythms, are predictive of hyperactivity, cognitive deficits and impulsivity at 6 years of age55,56, even in children showing normative sleep in the interim period57.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
