“…The findings for stronger amplitude DI has reported that this particular aspect of circadian functioning is related to poorer wellbeing, poor sleep quality and negative emotionality including depression, anxiety and stress. 13,14,24 In the current study, time to fall a sleep which is related to poor sleep quality was negatively correlated with DI. Other variables including eating habits and dietary intakes showed negative associations with DI which may be related to have large diurnal variation (more DI) as mood and the effectiveness of cognitive functioning of these people exhibits large variation throughout the day.…”

“…13,14 Also, recent findings highlighted that both MA and stronger amplitude DI rather than EV may become more related to negative emotions, such as depression, anxiety and stress, personality traits and wellbeing. 13,14,23,24 In the current study, while EV showed negative weak associations with sleep parameters, number of main meals and egg consumption, MA and DI exhibited more associations with the variables related to sleep parameters, eating habits and dietary intakes which may be considered both MA and DI rather than EV are more related to sleep parameters, eating habits and dietary intakes of university students.…”

ABS TRACT Objective: Studies in the literature evaluated the association between personality traits, sleep quality, and negative emotionality, and the circadian rhythm components of morning affect, eveningness, and amplitude of diurnal variation (distinctness). Associations between sleep parameters, eating habits, dietary intake, and diet quality, and circadian rhythm components were explored in the current study. Material and Methods: A sample of 605 Turkish university students participated in this study and completed a preliminary questionnaire related to sociodemographic characteristics, sleep parameters, and eating habits, and The Morningness-Eveningness Stability Scale improved. Also, their dietary intake was assessed with 24-hour dietary recall method. Results: Morning affect was positively correlated with number of main meals and snacks, energy, protein, total fat, saturated fatty acids, monounsaturated fatty acids intakes, and consumption of eggs and nuts and negatively correlated with time to fall asleep during weekends, wake up time on weekdays and weekends. Distinctness generally showed the opposite associations. Eveningness exhibited positive associations with wake up time on weekdays and weekends, and negative associations with number of main meals and egg consumption. No statistically significant association was established between circadian rhythm components of morning affect, eveningness and amplitude of diurnal variation (distinctness), and diet quality of university students. Conclusion: Circadian rhythm components of morning affect and distinctness may both be more strongly related to dietary intakes of university students. Further research is needed to confirm these findings and establish the directions of possible causal relationships, which may help to develop personalised nutrition advice for university students.
