OBJECTIVES: Poor sleep is common among older adults with chronic health conditions and their spousal caregivers. However, dyadic sleep patterns among spouses are underexplored within the literature. This study examines dyadic sleep characteristics and associated contextual factors among spousal care dyads.
METHODS: Participants included 462 older adult spousal care dyads from the 2015 National Health and Aging Trends Study and National Study of Caregiving (mean ages of care recipients/caregivers = 79 and 76 years, respectively; 22% of dyads were living with dementia). Self-reported sleep included frequency of (a) trouble falling back asleep among dyads, (b) care-related sleep disturbances among caregivers, and (c) trouble initiating sleep among care recipients. Predictors included between-dyad characteristics such as whether respondents had dementia, care burden and support, relationship quality, neighborhood cohesion, and within-dyad characteristics such as demographics, depression, and positive affect. We conducted multilevel dyadic analysis and actor-partner interdependence modeling.
RESULTS: Sleep was correlated more among dyads living with dementia than those with other chronic conditions. Care dyads had poorer sleep if caregivers reported higher care burden; however, better relationship quality marginally ameliorated the association. Depressive symptoms had a partner effect on poorer sleep among care dyads, whereas positive emotions and older age only had an actor effect on better sleep for care recipients and spousal caregivers. Neighborhood cohesion, care support, and other demographic characteristics were not associated with dyadic sleep outcomes.
DISCUSSION: Addressing both care recipient- and caregiver-related factors may improve sleep health for both members of the care dyad living with chronic conditions.
