Abstract
Objective
The objective of this study was to investigate the association between overall child development and the consolidation of circadian rhythmicity during early childhood.
Methods
Rest-activity data were measured through actigraphy, and child development status was assessed using a questionnaire, the Caregiver Reported Early Development Instruments (CREDI) short form. Data were collected from 32 infants, aged 3–35 months. To evaluate possible associations between the overall CREDI score and non-parametric rest-activity variables, an alternative regression model was estimated based on the residualized components of Relative Amplitude (RA) and overall CREDI score, controlling for the effect of age.
Results
A correlation was found between the overall CREDI score and RA (r = 0,74, p < 0.001) and the individual effect of RA was able to predict 24% (R2 = 0,24; R2 adjusted = 0,21) of the variability in the overall CREDI score.
Conclusion
Our results showed that increased circadian amplitude, reflecting circadian rhythm consolidation, was positively associated with developmental status in early childhood.
