Abstract
Significant negative correlations were found between chronotype and anxiety in 64 patients with chronic primary insomnia.
- A correlation coefficient of r = -0.40 indicates that a preference for eveningness is linked to increased state and trait anxiety.
- Correlations were also observed between eveningness preference and pre-sleep state anxiety (r = -0.30).
- The findings suggest that chronotype may influence the severity of anxiety symptoms in individuals with chronic primary insomnia.
- Eveningness preference could be a contributing factor to the anxiety-insomnia-depression cycle in these patients.
