Association of alcohol consumption with sleep disturbance among adolescents in China: a cross-sectional analysis

Alcohol consumption is associated with poor sleep quality in adolescents in China accounting for socioeconomic contexts and psychosocial stressors. The findings underscore the public health urgency of addressing alcohol drinking behaviors to mitigate sleep disturbances in adolescents. Further studies need to be performed to explore the causality between alcohol consumption and sleep quality in adolescents. Frequency and dosage of alcohol consumption need to be considered to explore dose-response relationships.
