Objective Measures of Sleep Apnea and Actigraphy-Based Sleep Characteristics as Correlates of Subjective Sleep Quality in an Epidemiologic Study: The Jackson Heart Sleep Study.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Self-reported "sleep quality" often is assessed in epidemiologic studies. However, the bases for variation in sleep quality is not fully understood. We quantified the extent to which subjective sleep quality was related to sleep disorders and sleep characteristics among 795 African American adults.

Method

Between 2012 and 2016, participants underwent home sleep apnea testing and 1-week actigraphy (estimating sleep duration, efficiency, fragmentation, latency). Sleep quality, insomnia and restless legs syndrome symptoms, sleepiness, and physician diagnosis of sleep disorders were self-reported. We fit linear regression models to determine the extent to which subjective and objective sleep measures as well as depressive symptoms and anxiety were related to subjective
