Abstract
College freshmen with depressive symptoms report higher levels of parental control and worse subjective sleep quality than their peers.
- Depressive symptoms are linked to increased parental control and poor sleep quality among college freshmen.
- There is no significant relationship between chronotype and depressive symptoms.
- Both maternal and paternal control show a direct association with depressive symptoms.
- Sleep quality independently mediates the relationship between parental control and depressive symptoms.
- Chronotype and sleep quality together mediate the effect of parental control on depressive symptoms.
