Description
Connor Sheehan presents research on social disparities in sleep among adults in mid and older adulthood in the United States. Sleep duration shrinks and insomnia rises with age, and sleep related conditions carry heavier stakes in later life. Quality sleep depends on resources such as time, low stress, quiet, and medical care, which are spread unevenly across society.
New results draw on the Health and Retirement Study and the National Health Interview Survey. Disparities are tracked by gender, race and ethnicity, and educational attainment. Unequal sleep can deepen inequality across generations and harm well being and longevity. The presentation closes with implications and possible interventions to narrow the sleep gap in older adults.
