Effects of Modifiable Activity-Related Health Behaviors on the Sleep-Pain Relationship in Adolescents.
Poor sleep and chronic pain are commonly related in adolescents. Only 5% of adolescents meet recommendations for physical activity and screen time, both of which impact the experience of sleep and pain disturbances. Research is needed to better understand the sleep-pain relationship in adolescents and to identify potential protective factors, such as activity-related health behaviors. This study examined sleep, behaviors that influence activity (i.e., physical activity, screen time), and their interaction as predictors of pain in a sleep-disordered sample of 105 adolescents aged 12-18 presenting for polysomnography. A hierarchical multiple linear regression was conducted to examine these relationships. Consistent with hypotheses, worse insomnia predicted worse pain. However, other activity-related health behaviors did not influence this relationship, ps > .05. Findings suggest that sleep should be the focus of treatment for adolescents with primary sleep disorders to prevent the onset or exacerbation of pain.
