SJLsc was the difference in sleep midpoint between workdays and free days, corrected for sleep debt. High SJL was SJLsc > 1 h. Weeks were classified as normal, extended-rest (statutory holidays added), or extended-work (weekend days reassigned as workdays). Provinces were grouped as east, central, or west by solar time offset, the gap between local solar time and China Standard Time. Generalized linear mixed models tested week type and solar offset.

High SJL was more common by week than by person (25.02% of person-weeks vs 20.25% of participants). High SJL was less likely during extended-rest (OR = 0.844, 95% CI 0.830-0.859) and extended-work weeks (OR = 0.776, 95% CI 0.758-0.794), while short-sleep odds were higher in both.
