Past exposure to violence victimization (adolescent or childhood) exacerbates the negative association between loneliness and sleep quality.
If you have a history of violence or maltreatment, loneliness may hit your sleep harder than it does for others. This is likely due to heightened threat sensitivity. Interventions should address both the social connection and the trauma history, as treating one without the other may be less effective.
The association between loneliness and sleep quality was exacerbated among individuals exposed to violence victimization in adolescence or maltreatment in childhood.
Why this rating
Robust longitudinal design with twin controls, though the interaction effect is smaller and potentially mediated by psychopathology.
