Race, Ethnicity, and Sleep in US Children
In this cross-sectional study of children's sleep disparities, racially and ethnically minoritized children exhibited disparities in mean levels and variability of sleep compared with their White peers. These findings suggest that policies and practices should target multiple sleep dimensions among diverse racial and ethnic groups to promote equitable pediatric sleep health.
