0793 A Comparison Of Children’s Sleep Characteristics From A Community Sample And From Child Protection Services For Child Neglect.
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Child neglect is associated with many factors that are likely to adversely affect children’s sleep quality. However, almost no studies compared sleep of children who have been exposed to this type of maltreatment to those who haven’t. The aim of this study was to compare sleep of children growing up in a neglect context to sleep of children coming from a similar socio-economic background but not exposed to parental neglect. Items derived from the Child’s sleep habits questionnaire (CSHQ) were assessed in two cohorts of mothers of children aged 2 to 79 months, attending either an intervention group for child neglect (n=52) or activities offered by community services (n=92). A repeated measures ANCOVA was computed to assess the differences in the children’s sleep reported by both group of mothers. The child’s sleep variables used were total sleep time (TST), bedtime struggles (BS), nocturnal awakenings (NA), excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) and the capacity to fall asleep by himself (FAH). Age was included as a covariate because of its close relationship with sleep. A significant Group X Sleep variables interaction was found [F (2.41,564)=19.69, p=.002], showing that the sleep variables were varying differently according to groups. Single comparison follow-up analysis using independent t-tests specified that mothers of children in the neglect group report higher TST than the mothers in the community group (10h48±1h37 vs 10h02±1h32 respectively; t(142)=-2.82, p=.005). On the other hand, mothers from the neglect group also indicate more EDS than the mothers in the community group (1.57±.82 vs 1.25 ±.53; t(77.13) = -2.52, p=.014). No other difference was found. Knowing that, in a child neglect population, parents tend to report higher level of daytime sleepiness even though they also report longer sleep duration in their child, future research should attempt to objectively evaluate children’s sleep quality in this population.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
