Neighborhood disadvantage and adolescent sleep health: a longitudinal population-based study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Neighborhood disadvantage may adversely affect adolescent sleep health, yet causal evidence is limited and whether these effects differ by sex and pubertal development remain unclear. This study examined the potential causal effect of neighborhood disadvantage on adolescent sleep duration and variability over a two-year period.

Methods

This cohort study analyzed data from 5045 adolescents (mean age 9.96 years at baseline) in the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) Study, a longitudinal, population-based sample in the United States. Three indicators of neighborhood disadvantage were assessed: Area Deprivation Index (ADI), air pollution, and nighttime noise, each dichotomized at the 80th percentile to indicate high exposure. Sleep outcomes were derived fro
