To investigate the impact of sleep deprivation on the physical and mental health of adolescents, and to provide theoretical references for improving the health level of adolescents.
Using data from the 2022 China Family Panel Studies (CFPS), participants aged 9-18 years were included. Observations aged >18 years, beyond the senior-high schooling stage, or with missing values on key variables were excluded. Multiple linear regression and propensity score matching were employed to estimate the effects of sleep deprivation on self-rated health and depressive symptoms among adolescents.
The final analytical sample comprised 2 600 valid observations, 61.96% of whom were classified as sleep-deprived. Insufficient sleep had significant negative impacts on adolescents’ self-rated health (β=-0.118, P=0.004) and depression (β=0.607, P<0.001). The results of propensity score matching through nearest neighbor matching, radius matching, and kernel matching showed that the average treatment effect of sleep status on adolescents’ self-rated health was -0.160 to-0.110, and on depression was 0.742 to 0.763.
Insufficient sleep leads to a decline in adolescents’ self-rated health and an increase in depressive symptoms. It is essential to ensure that adolescents get adequate sleep to promote healthy physical and brain development, alleviate anxiety and depression, and support their overall physical and mental well-being.
