A structural equation model of the relationship between insomnia, negative affect, and paranoid thinking

Scott, Alexander J.; Rowse, Georgina; Webb, Thomas L.

Abstract

A growing body of evidence points to relationships between insomnia, negative affect, and paranoid thinking. However, studies are needed to examine (i) whether negative affect mediates the relation between insomnia and paranoid thinking, (ii) whether different types of insomnia exert different effects on paranoia, and (iii) to compare the impact of objective and self-reported sleeping difficulties.
