Sleep Practices among Parents and Childless Individuals.

While sleep is genetically determined to some extent, it is also largely socially driven. Previous research on sleep is mostly biomedical and inconsistent since the number of analysed sleep variables is limited and it often does not distinguish between genders and parents based on the age of their child/ren. Using representative data from the Czech Household Panel Study (2018) with answers from 2,017 childless individuals and 1,022 parents and employing a method of propensity score matching, the manuscript use…

Sleep quality and sleep routines as mediators of stressors and life satisfaction in Czech university students: a structural equation model

Introduction: Sleep is especially important to overall well-being. Some aspects of sleep have been well documented, for example sleep quantity and its effect on well-being, but the value of a consistent sleep routine remains poorly studied.

Better sleep, better life? Testing the role of sleep on quality of life

Previous research has shown that sleep deprivation, low quality sleep or inconvenient sleeping times are associated with lower quality of life. However, research of the longitudinal effects of sleep on quality of life is scarce. Hence, we know very little about the long-term effect of changes in sleep duration, sleep quality and the time when individuals sleep on quality of life. Using longitudinal data from three waves of the Czech Household Panel Study (2018–2020) containing responses from up to 4,523 resp…

Social Jetlag in the Context of Work and Family

Sustainability through the liaison with data archive users

As a social science data archive, we focus on collecting research data and archiving it. However, there are more responsibilities that come with data archiving: cooperation on international social surveys (ISSP, ESS), supporting secondary data analysis and much more. Significant part of our work is to communicate with students and researchers, to educate them about data management and data analysis. Although the relationship we have is functional and seems sufficient, we tend to ask ourselves: who are the data…
