Abstract

Objective: This study gathered adolescent and caregiver perspectives on sleep hygiene practices and beliefs for Black families living in low-resourced urban communities.

Methods: Semistructured interviews were conducted with adolescents (n = 9) and caregivers (n = 9) from January-March 2021, during the COVID-19 pandemic. Interview questions included adolescent's current sleep habits, barriers, and home and neighborhood influences. Trained researchers coded data using inductive analysis and a constant comparative method to derive themes.

Results: Two themes focused on sleep hygiene practices, including items used to facilitate sleep (e.g., melatonin, electronics) and COVID-19 consequences on sleep schedules. Two themes focused on sleep hygiene beliefs, including a common value on the importance of sleep and influences on caregiver's bedtime rules.

Conclusions: Findings provide important insights on sleep hygiene practices and beliefs in a historically marginalized population of Black adolescents and caregivers in urban communities to inform targeted sleep interventions, policies, and programs for optimal sleep and well-being.

在 COVID-19 大流行期间，城市黑人青少年及其照顾者对睡眠卫生习惯和信仰的看法。

目的：本研究收集了生活在资源匮乏城市社区的青少年和照顾者对睡眠卫生习惯和信仰的看法：本研究收集了生活在资源匮乏的城市社区黑人家庭的青少年和照顾者对睡眠卫生习惯和信仰的看法：在 COVID-19 大流行期间，于 2021 年 1 月至 3 月对青少年（9 人）和照顾者（9 人）进行了半结构式访谈。访谈问题包括青少年目前的睡眠习惯、障碍以及家庭和邻里的影响因素。经过培训的研究人员采用归纳分析法和不断比较法对数据进行编码，从而得出主题：两个主题集中于睡眠卫生习惯，包括促进睡眠的物品（如褪黑素、电子产品）和 COVID-19 对睡眠时间安排的影响。两个主题侧重于睡眠卫生观念，包括对睡眠重要性的共同价值观和对照顾者就寝时间规定的影响：研究结果为城市社区中历来被边缘化的黑人青少年和照顾者提供了有关睡眠卫生习惯和信仰的重要见解，为有针对性的睡眠干预措施、政策和计划提供了信息，以实现最佳睡眠和健康。
