Abstract:
Sleep problems are associated with a host of psychiatric disorders and have been attributed to race disparities in health and wellness. Thus, our understanding of how the sleep–mental health relationship among low social classes is limited. Two sleep quality classes were identified–good sleep quality and poor sleep quality–with each class demonstrating a complex pattern of sleep experiences, and illuminating the association between sleep and depression risk. Findings provide insight into the influence of sociodemographic factors and social stressors on the sleep experience of the low class and the importance of considering within-group differences to better understand risk and resilience. Findings also highlight the importance of screening for sleep problems in an effort to reduce the burden of depression experienced by this population.
