As an excellent "sleep ambassador", Gu ailing, the champion of the Beijing Winter Olympics, said that "my secret weapon is to sleep for 10 hours every night", which awakened hundreds of millions of people.
However, the "China Sleep Research Report (2022)" (hereinafter referred to as the "report") recently published by the Institute of Sociology of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences in conjunction with the Xlinmen Furniture Co.Ltd(603008) Sleep Research Institute and the Social Sciences Literature Publishing House shows that in 2021, the average sleep time of the people was 7.06 hours a day, and 64.75% of the respondents actually slept less than 8 hours a day. Today's sleep time is nearly 1.5 hours less than 10 years ago
Chinese people sleep an average of 7.06 hours
According to the report, in 2021, the average daily sleep time of the people was 7.06 hours. 64.75% of the respondents actually slept less than 8 hours a day, and only 7.97% of the respondents slept more than 8 hours. Looking at the sleep situation of Chinese people in the ten years from 2012 to 2021, compared with 10 years ago, today's sleep time is more than two hours later, get up 37 minutes later, and sleep time is nearly 1.5 hours less.
The report shows that the sleep index of Chinese people in 2021 was 64.78 points (percentage system), slightly higher than the passing level, which shows that the overall sleep status of Chinese residents is general. Among them, the score of sleep quality index is the highest (71.51 points), followed by the score of sleep environment index (68.54 points). The lowest score is sleep belief and behavior index, which is only 54.73 points, indicating that Chinese residents have more bad sleep beliefs and behaviors, reflecting people's concern about sleep conditions, lack of understanding of sleep problems such as insomnia and delay in sleep time, which may be related to the development of the Internet in recent years, As a result, many residents habitually play mobile phones or surf the Internet before going to bed, affecting the quality of sleep.
According to the survey data, after the implementation of the "double reduction" policy, 61.53% of the parents of primary and secondary school students said that their children went to bed earlier. However, 50.48% and 37.77% of the parents of primary and secondary school students said that their children still could not sleep for an average of 8 hours a day on weekdays and weekends / rest days these data show that the double reduction policy has a positive significance in improving the sleep problems of primary and secondary school students, but it is still worthy of continuous attention of educators and all sectors of society
most residents work or study for a long time
According to the survey results of the report on the basic sleep of Chinese residents, the proportion of residents who work or study less than 8 hours a day is only 27.87%, and 42.35% of residents work or study more than 8 hours a day, of which 3.54% of residents work or study more than 12 hours a day, and the average working or studying hours of residents are 8.15 hours a day. It can be seen that most Chinese residents do not get enough sleep, but work or study for a long time.
The survey results show that only 2.76% of college students never look at their mobile phones before going to bed, and the rest will look at their mobile phones before going to bed, of which 61.53% will look at their mobile phones before going to bed every day. It can be seen that many college students rely on mobile phones, resulting in sleeping too late.
When workers were asked whether they felt lack of sleep every week, 11.33% of workers felt that they were seriously short of sleep, 44.83% of workers had insufficient sleep for one to two days a week, 20.20% of workers had insufficient sleep for three to four days a week, and 19.21% of people without insufficient sleep. Most workers would have insufficient sleep.
When asked about the times of drinking tea or coffee to refresh themselves in a month, 32.01% of workers said they did not have the habit of drinking. The proportion of drinking tea or coffee almost every day was 11.33%, the proportion of drinking tea or coffee four to six times a week was 14.29%, and the proportion of drinking tea or coffee one to three times a week was 26.11%. Overall, more than 60% of workers have the habit of drinking tea or coffee to refresh themselves.
report points out that it is not enough to discuss and study sleep problems only from the perspective of living habits. The importance of sleep research must be raised to the height of measuring people's mental health, well-being, quality of life and social quality. Sleep should be an important indicator to measure social development
