Temporal relationships of ecological momentary mood and actigraphy-based sleep measures in bipolar disorder.

Sleep disturbances are a key feature of bipolar disorder (BD), and poor sleep has been linked to mood symptoms. Recent use of ecological momentary assessment (EMA) has allowed for nuanced exploration of the sleep-mood link; though, the scale and directionality of this relationship is still unclear. Using EMA, actigraphy, and self-reported sleep measures, this study examines the concurrent and predictive relationships between sleep and mood.
