Child and adolescent sleep disturbances and psychopathology in a mental health clinic sample
The relationship between sleep and internalizing symptoms appears to change as children move through development. Further, sleep was a stronger predictor of internalizing problems in adolescents than children, suggesting an additional focus of clinician efforts in this age group. These findings strengthen the importance of routine assessment of sleep, as is done with the interRAI ChYMH.
