The effects of insomnia symptoms and objective short sleep duration on memory performance in adolescents and young adults

Introduction: Insufficient sleep and sleep disruption, especially insomnia symptoms, are common problems among adolescents and young adults. While the association between insufficient sleep and poor memory performance is well established, there has been limited research on how insomnia may affect memory performance, especially in adolescents. Recent evidence suggests that insomnia with objective short sleep duration, a more severe insomnia phenotype, is associated with an elevated risk for medical morbidity as well as neurocognitive impairments.
