Resumen

La investigación previa ha indicado la necesidad de usar muestras amplias en distintos contextos culturales para clarificar las diferencias de edad y sexo en matutinidad-vespertinidad y hábitos de sueño. El objetivo de la investigación fue estudiar la relación entre la matutinidad-vespertinidad y los hábitos de sueño en una muestra amplia de 2.649 adolescentes entre 12 y 16 años. Se utilizó la escala Morningness-Eveningness Scale for Children y una adaptación del School Sleep Habits Survey. Los resultados indicaron una mayor tendencia hacia la vespertinidad con la edad y en las chicas de 13 y 14 años. Los adolescentes mayores tendían a levantarse más tarde el fin de semana, acostarse más tarde y dormir menos, así como a un mayor jetlag social y retraso en la hora de levantarse y de acostarse. Las chicas tendían a levantarse antes entre semana y después el fin de semana, dormían más el fin de semana y tenían un mayor jetlag social y retraso en la hora de levantarse. Finalmente, los vespertinos tendían a acostarse y levantarse más tarde, dormir menos entre semana y más el fin de semana, así como a un mayor jetlag social y retraso en la hora de levantarse y de acostarse.
