Abstract
Introduction
The use of psychotropic substances has negative short- and long-term health outcomes, including complex direct and indirect effects on sleep and sleep-cardiovascular function. Here, we investigate daily relationships between self-reported substance use and objective measures of sleep and sleep-related heart rate (HR) in community-dwelling young adults.
Methods
Fifty-five healthy young adults (Mage = 23.1 ± 2.29 y, 30 female) in the National Consortium on Alcohol and Neurodevelopment in Adolescence (NCANDA) study completed a 28-day ecological momentary assessment protocol, including remote sleep and HR measurements via Fitbit devices, as well as daily app-based self-reports of alcohol and other substance use.
Results
A total of 1459 days of data were collected. Caffeine was the most frequent substance used, followed by alcohol, cannabis, nicotine, and other drugs. The analysis showed that substance use was associated with delays in sleep start and end time, reduced sleep duration and efficiency, and increased wake after sleep onset. Increases in sleep heart rate were associated with prior-day alcohol use.
Discussion
Substance use negatively influences sleep and sleep HR. These preliminary data highlight the potential value of using remote multimodal data collection to investigate the daily relationships between substance use and sleep in young adults, in an ecological setting.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Psychophysiology is the official journal of the International Organization of Psychophysiology, and provides a respected forum for the publication of high quality original contributions on all aspects of psychophysiology. The journal is interdisciplinary and aims to integrate the neurosciences and behavioral sciences. Empirical, theoretical, and review articles are encouraged in the following areas:
• Cerebral psychophysiology: including functional brain mapping and neuroimaging with Event-Related Potentials (ERPs), Positron Emission Tomography (PET), Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) and Electroencephalographic studies.
• Autonomic functions: including bilateral electrodermal activity, pupillometry and blood volume changes.
• Cardiovascular Psychophysiology:including studies of blood pressure, cardiac functioning and respiration.
• Somatic psychophysiology: including muscle activity, eye movements and eye blinks.
