“…In adolescents experiencing sleep difficulties, there is a lack of clear evidence for the success of various interventions, such as sleep education and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) based programs. While some improvement was noted immediately postintervention, there were low rates of maintenance of these sleep habits at follow-up [3,11,17,24,25 && ] Further research is needed to identify which interventions offer the most significant improvements in this adolescent population. [29][30][31].…”

“…The biopsychosocial model highlights the interconnected influence of biological, psychological, and socio-environmental factors on an individual's well being, and can be applied to the development of mental health and sleep disorders. The suggested mechanisms between sleep difficulties and mental health are multifactorial, including family environment, genetic factors, and variation in brain structures and neurotransmitters [24,32 ▪▪ ]. There are twin studies highlighting the genetic link between ADHD, depression, and anxiety, as well as insomnia [32 ▪▪ ].…”

Purpose of review Sleep deprivation is known to affect multiple aspects of mental health, physical health, and daily functioning. With increasing reports of sleep disturbances and increasing mental health needs in adolescents, it is imperative that healthcare providers have a strong understanding of the relationship between sleep and mental health, the impact of poor sleep on the school experience, and an understanding of behavioral interventions targeting sleep practices. Recent findings Recent studies have shown that the relationship between sleep and mental health is complex and multifaceted. While mental health diagnoses and symptoms can negatively influence sleep quality and quantity, so too does poor sleep increase the risk of mental health diagnoses, symptom severity, and suicide risk. Sleep likewise affects the school experience, both positively and negatively. Targeted interventions and prevention programs may be effective in treatment of sleep disturbances for adolescents. Summary Clinicians must be aware of the above associations and their clinical implications. Patients with either mental health or sleep concerns should be screened for potential co-morbid conditions. Improving sleep hygiene practices can improve the sleep experience in adolescents, however, there remains a gap in understanding the best method to improve sleep hygiene practices in this population.

“…Regarding life factors, sleep structure undergoes a dramatic change during adolescence, and teenagers are susceptible to sleep problems due to delayed biological circadian [ 17 ]. Sleep disturbance among adolescents was commonly found to be associated with depression [ 18 ] or anxiety [ 19 ]. As to behavioral factors, with the popularization of digital devices, students nowadays can easily get access to internet use, and online gaming can become addictive to adolescents [ 20 ].…”

Background Depressive and anxiety symptoms affect about one-fourth of Chinese secondary school students. However, the prevalence and correlates of mental distress among secondary school students from Western China remain largely unexplored. This study aimed to examine the prevalence and associations of depressive and anxiety symptoms with demographic, family, school, life, and behavior factors in a large, representative sample of secondary school students in Zigong, a city in Western China. Methods Secondary school students were recruited using cluster sampling. The 9-item Patient Health Questionnaire, the 7-item Generalized Anxiety Disorder Questionnaire, Multidimensional Peer-Victimization Scale, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, and Nine-Item Internet Gaming Disorder Scale-Short Form were used. Descriptive statistic was used to describe the sociodemographic characteristics of participants. The clustering effect was adjusted by the “survey” package of R to calculate weighted prevalence. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression were used to explore associated factors of depression and anxiety, respectively. Results A total of 63,205 participants were involved, in which the weighted prevalence of depression in all subjects was 23.0% (95% CI: 19.6- 27.0%), and the weighted prevalence of anxiety was 13.9% (95% CI: 11.2- 17.0%). Logistic regression results showed girls, being single-child, non-nuclear family, peer bullying, sleep disturbance, and internet gaming disorder symptoms were positively associated with depressive and anxiety symptoms. Conclusion Depressive and anxiety symptoms were prevalent among secondary school students in Western China. Our results can guide policy strategies for the assessment, prevention, and intervention of psychological status among Chinese secondary school students.

“…Furthermore, they are related to risk for self‐harm (Singareddy et al, 2013) and depression severity (Liu et al, 2007), and they may also impede recovery from depression (Clarke & Harvey, 2012). Despite some evidence for the bidirectional link between sleep and depression, there is stronger evidence demonstrating that sleep problems precede the onset or exacerbation of depression (Lovato & Gradisar, 2014; Tolêdo et al, 2020).…”

Sleep problems and depression increase in adolescence. Adolescents tend to go to sleep at a later time, which results in shorter sleep duration especially if they attend school in the morning. The aim of this study was to examine the relation between school schedule (morning school schedule and afternoon school schedule), sleep quality, and depression in Croatian adolescents. A total of 253 students of third and fourth grades of high school (17 and 18 years of age) completed measures of sleep quality and depression. Results have shown that participants who attend school in the morning also sleep less, have more difficulties in daily functioning due to problem with sleep and are more depressed, but their habitual sleep efficiency is better than in participants who attend school in the afternoon. Furthermore, depression was correlated with poorer sleep latency, sleep duration, more sleep disturbances, use of sleep medication, daytime dysfunction, as well as poorer global sleep quality index. Finally, morning school schedule, poorer sleep duration, sleep disturbances, use of sleep medication, and daytime dysfunction predicted depression, with sleep duration and daytime dysfunction mediating the relation between school schedule and depression.
