Sleep quality, neurocognitive performance, and memory self-appraisal in middle-aged and older adults with memory complaints.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Because of inconsistent findings regarding the relationship between sleep quality and cognitive function in people with age-related memory complaints, we examined how self-reports of sleep quality were related to multiple domains of both objective and subjective cognitive function in middle-aged and older adults.

Design

A cross-sectional study involving analysis of baseline data, collected as part of a clinical trial.

Measurements

Two hundred and three participants (mean age = 60.4 [6.5] years, 69.0% female) with mild memory complaints were asked to rate their sleep quality using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and their memory performance using the Memory Functioning Questionnaire (MFQ), which measures self-awareness of memory ability.
