Abstract [sv]

Bakgrund: God sömn motverkar stress och kan därmed sägas verka rustande mot stressupplevelser, den är på så vis nödvändig för god hälsa. De flesta vårdcentralsbesök görs av patienter med sömnsvårigheter. Kvinnor har sömnproblem i större utsträckning än män. Stress, dator- och mobildisplayanvändning, skiftarbete associeras med sömnsvårigheter.  Kvinnor har genom åren tagit sig in på arbetsmarknaden och arbetar nu ungefär i lika stor utsträckning som män även om de har tjänster med mindre inflytande, makt och lägre lön. Syftet var att jämföra kvinnors sömn i relation till arbetssituation. Metod: En tvärsnittsjämförelse av 1980/81 med 2004/05, med sömnens relation till arbetssituationen och utbildning som covariat gjordes på 38-åriga kvinnor utifrån Populationsundersökningen av kvinnor. Logistisk regressionsanalys och SPSS användes till bearbetning och uträkning. Resultatet ger en halvering av andelen som sov nio timmar eller mer från 8,20 %, 1980/81 till 3,47 %, 2004/05 samt en fördubbling av andelen som sov fyra timmar eller mindre. Resultaten i denna studie visar dubbel risk att ha dålig sömn 2004/05 (OR 2,31 ), jämfört med 38-åringarna1980/81. Vidare syns ett signifikant samband mellan en upplevelse av dålig sömn vid dålig arbetssituation. Kvinnor sover mindre nu vilket troligen beror på ökade samhällskrav. Implikation: Vidare studier om arbetande familjekvinnors stressupplevelse alternativt hemarbetande jämställdhets uppfattning föreslås. Interventioner via bland annat sömnrelaterade mötesplatser, sömnskolor och antistresskurser kunde ges bland annat på Sveriges vårdcentraler, inom räckhåll för alla för att ge möjlighet till förbättrad hälsa åt alla i befolkningen.

Abstract [en]

Introduction: Sleep prevents stress; it helps us meet stressors accordingly and is therefore essential for good health. A great part of the visits to health centers involve sleeping disturbances. Research implies that women have sleeping problems to a greater extent than men. Stress, computer use, irregular working hours are associated with sleep problems. Women in Sweden are working to approximately the same extent as men, even though they possess less powerful positions with lower salary. The aim of the study was to compare women’s sleep in relation to their work situation. Method: With data from the Populations Study of Women in Gothenburg a cohort comparison, with education as covariate, of the 38 year old women in the examinations 1980/81 and 2004/05 is done. SPSS is used to describe the statistics and logistic regression analysis to do the analysis. The results show that the amount of women sleeping nine hours or more have halved in 2004/05 from 8.20 %, 1980/81 to 3.47 %, 2004/05 and the number of women sleeping four hours or less has doubled. Moreover, there is an indicated doubled risk of experiencing inferior sleep in 2004/05 (OR 2, 31), compared with 1980/81. There is a strong significant association between experiencing inferior sleep when having a poor situation at work. Women sleep less today probably depending on higher societal individual demands. Implication: Research on working family women’s experience of stress or housewife’s equality opinion. There is a need for broad interventions, where people can meet and learn about sleep hygiene as well as participating in anti-stress seminars. These could be given at Sweden’s health centers, within reach for everyone in order to enable better health for all
