description

Exposure to green environments has been associated with better sleep quality in adults. This study examined whether nature exposure is associated with parent-reported or actigraphy measured sleep quality in children. Against the hypotheses, no differences in sleep quality between the case and control groups or a moderating effect of socioeconomic status or sex were found. Green environment exposure may not serve as an environmental intervention to increase sleep quality in children. peerReviewed
