“…This ascertains when an individual's peak alertness is (morning, evening or in between) over 19 multiple‐choice questions. Scores correspond to the following chronotypes: 16–30, definite evening; 31–41, moderate evening; 42–58, intermediate; 59–69, moderate morning and 70–86, definite morning. The Pre‐Sleep Arousal Scale, which quantifies cognitive and somatic arousal during the presleep period. It consists of 16 items across two subscales, one assessing cognitive arousal and the other somatic arousal, with scores ranging from 8 to 40.…”

“…The scale has been broadly used and shows satisfactory internal consistency and test-retest reliability. [27][28][29][30] Validity has been demonstrated for populations with insomnia versus good sleeper controls. 27 Both subscales (α som = .73; α cog = .88 ) showed good internal consistency in our sample.…”

Study Objectives: To investigate the prevalence of binge viewing, its association with sleep and examine arousal as an underlying mechanism of this association. Methods: Four hundred twenty-three adults (aged 18-25 years old, 61.9% female) completed an online survey assessing regular television viewing, binge viewing, sleep quality (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index), fatigue (Fatigue Assessment Scale), insomnia (Bergen Insomnia Scale), and pre-sleep arousal (Pre-Sleep Arousal Scale). Regression analyses were conducted. Mediation analysis was performed using PROCESS Macro. Results: There were 80.6% who identified themselves as a binge viewer. Among those who binge viewed (n = 341), 20.2% had binge viewed at least a few times a week during the past month. Among poor sleepers (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index > 5), 32.6% had a poor sleep quality associated with being a binge viewer. Higher binge viewing frequency was associated with a poorer sleep quality, increased fatigue and more symptoms of insomnia, whereas regular television viewing was not. Cognitive pre-sleep arousal fully mediated these relationships. Conclusions: New viewing styles such as binge viewing are increasingly prevalent and may pose a threat to sleep. Increased cognitive arousal functions as the mechanism explaining these effects. Measures of media exposure should take into account the user's level of engagement with media. Interventions aimed at (1) alerting viewers about excessive viewing duration and (2) reducing arousal before sleep may be useful ways to tackle sleep problems in binge viewers.
