Objective:To explore the relationship between self-rated economic status and sleep quality and duration among older adults in China,so as to provide references for related policies and intervention measures.Methods:Based on the data from the Chinese longitudinal healthy longevity survey data,this study employed ordered logit panel regression models to analyze the rela-tionship between self-rated economic status,sleep quality and sleep duration among 47718 older adults aged 60 and above.Re-sults:Self-rated economic status was significantly associated with sleep quality among older adults.Compared with older adults with poor economic status,those with average(OR=1.37,P<0.001)and affluent(OR=1.65,P<0.001)self-rated economic status had significantly better sleep quality.Self-rated economic status was significantly associated with sleep duration among older adults.Those with average(OR=1.16,P<0.001)and affluent(OR=1.21,P<0.001)self-rated economic status had longer sleep dura-tion.The relationship between self-rated economic status and sleep exhibited heterogeneity,with the association between self-rated economic status and sleep duration mainly manifested among younger,female and rural-dwelling older adults.Conclusion:The good economic status contributes to better sleep quality and longer sleep duration among older adults.Policy-makers and public health practitioners need to better understand the needs of different older adult populations in order to develop targeted interventions and policies.
