Parent-reported sleep problems during development and self-reported anxiety/depression, attention problems, and aggressive behavior later in life
To examine associations between sleep problems during development and subsequent emotional and behavioral difficulties.

Participants reported on their own emotional and behavioral symptoms at a later assessment (when aged 18-32 years) by completing the Young Adult Self-Report.
