Abstract

Ciljevi ovog istraživanja bili su ispitati kvalitetu spavanja i preferencije na dimenziji
jutarnjosti-večernjosti bračnih partnera starijih od 50 godina. Osim toga, ispitali smo
usklađenost partnera u kvaliteti spavanja i jutarnjosti-večernjosti te međusobnu povezanost
ovih karakteristika. U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 98 bračnih parova, čija je prosječna dob bila
61 godina kod kojih su primijenjeni instrumenti: Pittsburgh indeks kvalitete spavanja (PSQI) i
Kompozitna skala jutarnjosti-večernjosti (CSM). Utvrđeno je da postoje razlike između
bračnih partnera u općoj kvaliteti spavanja, tj. ukupnom rezultatu na PSQI, pri čemu je kod
žena kvaliteta spavanja bila niža. Žene su imale lošiji rezultate na skalama Latencije
uspavljivanja, Subjektivne kvalitete spavanja i Dnevnog funkcioniranja u usporedbi s
muškarcima. Među bračnim partnerima pronađena je i razlika u preferencijama na dimenziji
jutarnjosti-večernjosti na način da su žene imale manje izraženu jutarnjost od muškaraca. Nije
pronađena usklađenost bračnih partnera prema ukupnom rezultatu u PSQI upitniku kao niti
prema rezultati na CSM skali. Nije pronađena povezanost opće kvalitete spavanja sa
preferencijom jutarnjosti-večernjosti.

Abstract (english)

The aim of this study was to investigate sleep quality and morningness-eveningness
preferences in a community sample of married couples older than 50 years. Furthermore, we
examined whether married couples are matched or mismatched in sleep quality and
morningness-eveningness preferences and relationship between the two measures. The sample
of 98 married couples filled Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and The Composite Scale
of Morningness (CSM). The results show that married couples in general differ in sleep
quality, wherein women have worse sleep quality. Women had poorer results on components
Sleep latency, Subjective sleep quality and Daytime dysfunction compared to men. Moreover,
a difference between married couples was found in morningness-eveningness indicating that
women show less morningness preferences than men. The married couples weren't matched
neither on general sleep quality nor morningness-eveningness. Significant correlation between
general sleep quality and morningness-eveningness preferences was not found.
