“…However, the associations were small and not observed in the analyses including the other S-ZTPI dimensions as the predictors. In contrast to the results in Vranesh et al (1999) higher scores on Past Positive and Future Positive were not associated with increased sleeping difficulties or daytime sleepiness, neither as judged from the bivariate association nor results from multivariate analyses, though. The present results appear reasonable given relations of Past Positive or Future to health-promoting behaviors, for example medication adherence (Sansbury et al, 2014) and healthy life style habits, including less frequent use of alcohol and smoking (Keough et al, 1999).…”

“…A hypothetical model by which deviations from a balanced time perspective influences SWB via poor sleep was furthermore tested. Consistent with our primary hypotheses, the time perspective dimensions capturing an aversive orientations toward the past and the future, i.e., Past Negative (see also Vranesh et al, 1999) and Future Negative were related to poorer sleep quality. Of the two dimensions, Future Negative appeared to be the more prominent predictor of sleep quality as well as daytime sleepiness, providing another example of the important role of Future Negative to account for health-related factors and behaviors (Carelli et al, 2011; Åström et al, 2014; Blomgren et al, 2016; Rönnlund et al, 2017, 2018).…”

“…In line with the prediction based on Vranesh et al (1999), scores on Present Fatalistic moreover exhibited a significant positive association with sleeping problems and was associated with daytime sleepiness as well. However, the associations were small and not observed in the analyses including the other S-ZTPI dimensions as the predictors.…”

“…The only extant study of sleep quality (Vranesh et al, 1999) was a short report based on student sample ( n = 135) with limited discussion of the results. In line with the predictions above, higher scores on Past Negative were significantly associated with sleeping problems.…”

This study examined the extent to which individual differences in time perspective, i.e., habitual way of relating to the personal past, present, and future, are associated with sleep quality and daytime sleepiness in a sample of older adults. The participants (N = 437, 60–90 years) completed the Karolinska Sleep Questionnaire (KSQ), a the Swedish version of the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (S-ZTPI), and two ratings of subjective well-being (SWB) (life satisfaction, happiness). Based on established relationships between dimension of time perspective and other variables (e.g., depression) and relations between negative retrospection (rumination) and negative prospection (worry) in prior studies, we expected higher scores on Past Negative and Future Negative to be linked to poor sleep quality and (indirectly) increased daytime sleepiness. Moreover, we examined the possibility that variations in perceived sleep and sleepiness during the day mediates the expected association between an aggregate measure of deviations from a so called balanced time perspective (DBTP) and SWB. In regression analyses controlling for demographic factors (age, sex, and work status), higher scores on Past Negative and Future Negative predicted poorer sleep quality and higher levels of daytime sleepiness. Additionally, most of the association between time perspective and daytime sleepiness was accounted for by individual differences in sleep quality. Finally, structural equation modeling yielded results consistent with the hypothesis that variations in sleep mediate part of the negative relationship between DBTP and SWB. Given that good sleep is essential to multiple aspects of health, future studies evaluating relationships between time perspective and adverse health outcomes should consider sleep quality as a potentially contributing factor.

“…In a study of university students and time perspective, Vranesh, Madrid, Bautista, Ching, and Hicks (1999) reported that students who were more concerned about time were more likely to indicate problems with sleep. Time-pressure, defined as having to engage in outside activity very soon after ending periods of sleep, was related to the level of sleep satisfaction in students (Hawkins & Shaw, 1989 The differences in sleep problems between older adults and younger, tradi tional-aged college students are significant.…”

Understanding Sleep Disorders in a College Student Population

College students' sleep habits are changing dramatically. and related sleep problems are increasing.The author reviews the current literature on sleep problems, focusing on the college student population.An explanation of the basics of sleep is provided as a base for understanding sleep disorders.The unique challenges of college settings are discussed as they apply to understanding sleep problems, and suggestions are made for professionals who work with college students. unian beings will spend approximately one third of their lives in a sleep state, and sleep has been shown to be essential for the rnainte-H nance of mental health. Sleep problems of college students, especially full-time students who are experiencing high levels of stress because of the demands of academic performance, present an intriguing topic for examination. Unfortunately, relatively little research has focused on this group of individuals. Most studies have focused instead on young children or older adults. Because college counselors come into contact with clients who experience disordered sleep, I address this concern by first reviewing the literature on college students and their sleep problems and then discussing implications for college counselors who work with students who are experiencing such difficulties.Sleep problems and disorders have shown a marked increase since serious study of the topic began in the 1950s (Carskadon & Taylor, 1997). In 1993, the National Commission on Sleep Disorders Research submitted an executive report to Congress detailing the results of a comprehensive research investigation. The report examined the then-current state of knowledge about sleep disorders, including the economic and social impact of such problems.The findings indicated that approximately 40 million U.S. residents suffer from primary chronic sleep disorders and that millions more experience at least recurring or intermittent sleep problems. Projective statistics indicated that by the year 2010,79 million Americans will be affected by sleeping problems, and 40 million will suffer excessive sleepiness. Findings also pointed to extremely high economic and social costs of sleep disorders, as well as serious gaps in the research. It is not difficult to imagine that college students on campuses across the nation will also continue to experience unique difficulties as sleep problems of students increase. The literature that I review throughout this article supports that presumption.
