To investigate the prevalence of bed-sharing and examine correlates of bed-sharing habits in early adolescents.

Methods

Participants were 1452 early adolescents from 10 primary schools in Shanghai, China. Children's health status and past history, family environment and parents' attitude towards bed-sharing, and children's sleep arrangements were surveyed. Sleep was assessed by the Children's Sleep Habit Questionnaire. Tanner stage was determined by the endocrinologist.

Results

The median of age was 10.83 years (range: 9.42–12.92; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 10.79–10.83) and boys accounted for 51.17%. The prevalence of bed-sharing was 16.8%. Positive parental attitude toward bed-sharing (OR: 9.87; 95% CI: 6.57–14.83), asthma (OR: 2.15; 95% CI: 1.16–3.98), smaller residential space (OR: 1.90; 95% CI: 1.17–3.09), extended family (OR: 1.59; 95% CI: 1.16–2.18), and being physically less mature (OR: 2.39; 95% CI: 1.16–4.91) increased the likelihood of bed-sharing. Bed-sharers were more likely to have bedtime resistance (OR: 12.20; 95% CI: 8.59–17.33), sleep anxiety (OR: 3.76; 95% CI: 2.74–5.15), and poor sleep quality (OR: 3.21; 95% CI: 2.28–4.81) compared to non-bed-sharers. Furthermore, bed-sharing was associated with daytime sleepiness (OR: 1.53; 95% CI: 1.10–2.13) but not with sleep duration.

Conclusions

Bed-sharing is highly prevalent among Chinese early adolescents and is significantly related to sleep quality. Parental positive attitude toward bed-sharing was the most determining factor.
