Background: Sleeping is a major component of health. The prevalence of sleep disorders is expected to be high in older adults, and sleep habits generally differ on weekdays and weekends. This study aimed to clarify the associations between sleep habits and the subjective health status of older adults.
Methods: This study analyzed data of 1,678 older adults (695 men and 883 women) aged 65 years or older who had participated in the 2016 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES VII-1) conducted by the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The participants’ subjective health perceptions were analyzed according to their sleep habits.
Results: Weekday and weekend sleep durations were related to subjective health in older men (p<0.05) but not in women. The subjective health perception was significantly better for a 9-hour sleep duration than for a 7-hour sleep duration in older men. Sleeping and waking times on weekdays and weekends were not related to the subjective health of either men or women.
Conclusion: Weekday and weekend sleep durations were related to subjective health perception in older men.
