Abstract

This study examined the association between perceived sleep quality and mental and cognitive health among older Korean Americans residing in subsidized senior housing. Survey data from 318 participants (Mean age = 79.5, SD = 6.66) were analyzed. Sleep quality was measured using a single-item self-rating (excellent/very good/good vs. fair/poor). Both screening tools and self-ratings were used for outcomes: mental health with the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) and self-rated mental health and cognitive health with the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and self-rated cognitive health. Logistic regression models showed that poor sleep quality was associated with both probable depression (PHQ-9≥ 10) and fair/poor ratings of mental health. It was also associated with poorer ratings of cognitive health but not with MMSE-based cognitive impairment. Our findings suggest that efforts to promote health and well-being in senior housing should specifically address sleep.

感知睡眠质量在心理和认知健康中的作用：一项对生活在补贴老年住房中的老年韩裔美国人的研究。

本研究考察了居住在补贴老年住房中的韩裔美国老年人感知睡眠质量与心理和认知健康之间的关系。对318名参与者（平均年龄79.5岁，SD = 6.66）的调查数据进行分析。睡眠质量通过单项自评（优秀/非常好/良好vs.一般/差）来衡量。筛查工具和自评均用于结果：患者健康问卷-9 （PHQ-9）的心理健康状况，简易精神状态检查（MMSE）和自评认知健康的心理健康和认知健康。Logistic回归模型显示，睡眠质量差与可能的抑郁（PHQ-9≥10）和心理健康的一般/较差评分相关。它还与认知健康评分较差有关，但与基于mmse的认知障碍无关。我们的研究结果表明，促进老年人住房健康和福祉的努力应该专门解决睡眠问题。
