Comparison between self-reported sleep duration and actigraphy among adolescents: gender differences

Abstract: Our data are consistent with previous studies as to non-agreement between the two methods. These results are relevant because this is the first study of concordance between subjective measures of sleep and actigraphy among Brazilian adolescents, as far as we know. In addition, they reinforce the need of a careful use of nocturnal sleep measures among adolescents, mainly among boys.

“…However, meeting the sleep duration guideline per se was not associated with BMI z-score or obesity. One difference from prior studies is that the present study used an objective measure of sleep whereas others have used self-report, which may overestimate sleep [45] or may tap into the child's or parent's perceptions of sleep that are based on bedtime rather than actual time spent sleeping. Regardless, an adequate amount of sleep should be recommended for all adolescents due to its benefits on health and other behaviors, including memory and emotional regulation [43], and prospective trials are needed to examine the influence of sleep on obesity beyond cross-sectional associations.…”

“…Our study used self-reported sleep data. Although some studies found that self-reported sleep correlates highly with actigraphy data [38], others have found discrepancies that suggest caution with interpretation [39,40]. However, sleep data were measured using standardized sleep questions making relative cross-national comparisons more likely to be valid despite imprecisions.…”

“…Previous studies have shown that subjective and objective sleep parameters, such as sleep latency, sleep duration, or sleep efficiency could differ [10][11][12] ; the strength of correlation between the subjective and objective measures of the same parameters varied between 0.21 and 0.62 for sleep latency and duration, while it was close to 0 for sleep efficiency. Subjective sleep quality can vary from objective sleep quality as it is typically estimated from a combination of parameters, such as sleep initiation, sleep continuity (number of awakenings), and/or depth of sleep.…”
