  • Does Cosleeping Contribute to Lower Testosterone Levels in Fathers? Evidence from the Philippines
    2016
    Co-Authors: Lee T Gettler, James J Mckenna, Thomas W Mcdade, Sonny S Agustin, Christopher W Kuzawa
    Abstract:

    Because cross-species evidence suggests that high testosterone (T) may interfere with paternal investment, the relationships between men’s transition to parenting and changes in their T are of growing interest. Studies of human males suggest that fathers who provide childcare often have lower T than uninvolved fathers, but no studies to date have evaluated how nighttime sleep proximity between fathers and their offspring may affect T. Using data collected in 2005 and 2009 from a sample of men (n = 362; age 26.0 6 0.3 years in 2009) residing in metropolitan Cebu, Philippines, we evaluated fathers ’ T based on whether they slept on the same surface as their children (same surface cosleepers), slept on a different surface but in the same room (roomsharers), or slept separately from their children (solitary sleepers). A large majority (92%) of fathers in this sample reported practicing same surface Cosleeping. Compared to fathers who slept solitarily, same surface Cosleeping fathers had significantly lower evening (PM) T and also showed a greater diurnal decline in T from waking to evening (both p,0.05). Among men who were not fathers at baseline (2005), fathers who were cosleepers at follow-up (2009) experienced a significantly greater longitudinal decline in PM T over the 4.5-year study period (p,0.01) compared to solitary sleeping fathers. Among these same men, baseline T did not predict fathers ’ sleeping arrangements at follow-up (p.0.2). These results are consistent with previous findings indicating that daytime father-child interaction contributes to lower T among fathers. Our findings specifically suggest that close sleep proximity between fathers and their offsprin

    Abstract:

    Analyses were restricted to men who transitioned from being non-fathers in 2005 to parents in 2009. Values are adjusted for time of saliva collection, stratified according to whether fathers were solitary sleepers (n = 9) or cosleepers (n = 200). Statistical comparisons reflect that Cosleeping fathers had a significantly greater decline in PM T compared to solitary sleeping fathers. *** p = 0.001. Error bars indicate s.e.m.

  • mother infant Cosleeping breastfeeding and sudden infant death syndrome what biological anthropology has discovered about normal infant sleep and pediatric sleep medicine
    American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 2007
    Co-Authors: James J Mckenna, Helen L Ball, Lee T Gettler
    Abstract:

    Twenty years ago a new area of inquiry was launched when anthropologists proposed that an evolutionary perspective on infancy could contribute to our understanding of unexplained infant deaths. Here we review two decades of research examining parent-infant sleep practices and the variability of maternal and infant sleep physiology and behavior in social and solitary sleeping environments. The results challenge clinical wisdom regarding "normal" infant sleep, and over the past two decades the perspective of evolutionary pediatrics has challenged the supremacy of pediatric sleep medicine in defining what are appropriate sleep environments and behaviors for healthy human infants. In this review, we employ a biocultural approach that integrates diverse lines of evidence in order to illustrate the limitations of pediatric sleep medicine in adopting a view of infants that prioritizes recent western social values over the human infant's biological heritage. We review what is known regarding infant sleeping arrangements among nonhuman primates and briefly explore the possible paleoecological context within which early human sleep patterns and parent-infant sleeping arrangements might have evolved. The first challenges made by anthropologists to the pediatric and SIDS research communities are traced, and two decades of studies into the behavior and physiology of mothers and infants sleeping together are presented up to the present. Laboratory, hospital and home studies are used to assess the biological functions of shared mother-infant sleep, especially with regard to breastfeeding promotion and SIDS reduction. Finally, we encourage other anthropologists to participate in pediatric sleep research using the unique skills and insights anthropological data provide. By employing comparative, evolutionary and cross-cultural perspectives an anthropological approach stimulates new research insights that influence the traditional medical paradigm and help to make it more inclusive. That this review will potentially stimulate similar research by other anthropologists is one obvious goal. That this article might do so makes it ever more possible that anthropologically inspired work on infant sleep will ultimately lead to infant sleep scientists, pediatricians, and parents becoming more informed about the consequences of caring for human infants in ways that are not congruent with their evolutionary biology.

    Co-Authors: JosÉ Carlos Rosa Pires De ,souza, Gaudioso, Carlos Eduardo Vilela, Guerra, Hellen Da Costa, Alves, Andrea Das Chagas, Oliveira, Jolene Cristina Ferreira, Gnobie, Nilton Cezar AntÔnio, SilvÉrio, DesirÉe Correa Guerra
    Abstract:

    Developmental and cultural factors affect sleep habits in childhood. The objective of this research was to determine sleep habits of children in the isolated rural African-Brazilian community of Furnas do Dionísio, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil. The members of this community are closely related descendants of the ex-slave Dionísio, and remained in relative geographical isolation for about a century. Sleep characteristics of 55 children (35M; 20F), 2 to 10 year olds, were evaluated in interviews with their mothers. The results showed that Cosleeping, in the same bed with family members, was present in 80.0% of the 2-3 year olds; decreasing to 25.0% of the 8-10 year olds. Only 5.4% of the children slept alone in their own bedroom. Mean number of persons per bedroom was 2.8. Only 7.0% of the bedrooms had TV; 98.1% slept in silence. The data obtained support the need to weigh cultural factors influence on sleep

  • Hábitos de sono da criança indígena Bororo
    Academia Brasileira de Neurologia - ABNEURO, 1999
    Co-Authors: ReimÃo Rubens, JosÉ Carlos Rosa Pires De ,souza, Gaudioso, Carlos Eduardo Vilela
    Abstract:

    Sleep behavior patterns in childhood are influenced by familial, cultural and environmental factors. In understanding sleep in Native Brazilian Bororo children, one should consider the influence of their culture on the child's sleep. This research analyzes sleep habits of Native Bororo children from the Meruri village, located in an Indian Reservation in the state of Mato Grosso. Fourty four children ( 24 M; 20 F) were evaluated; ages ranged from one month to 10 years, with a mean age of 4.9 years. Sleep characteristics were assessed by means of a standard questionnaire applied to the mothers. Cosleeping - sleeping together with family members - was a remarkable finding, in every child 0-2 year old and in 81.5% in the 2-10 years group. The second characteristic was sleeping with many people in the same room. There was an average of 5.1 people per room in the younger group and 3.9 people in the older groupO padrão de sono da criança é influenciado por fatores familiares, culturais e ambientais. Para compreendermos as características do sono da criança indígena brasileira, devemos levar em consideração a influência de sua cultura.

Quarenta e quatro crianças foram avaliadas (24 M; 20 F), com idades de um mês a 10 anos (média 4,9 anos). As características do sono foram avaliadas por meio de questionário padronizado aplicado em entrevista com as mães. O hábito de dormir junto (Cosleeping) na mesma cama com familiares foi encontrado em todas as crianças abaixo de 2 anos; em 81,5%, entre 2 e 10 anos. Numerosos familiares dormem no mesmo quarto.

  • Sleep habits in native Brazilian Terena children in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil
    Academia Brasileira de Neurologia - ABNEURO, 1998
    Co-Authors: JosÉ Carlos Rosa Pires De ,souza, Medeiros,marizÉlia Mazzini, AlmirÃo,raquel Icassati
    Abstract:

    Sleep habits in childhood vary in function of physiologcal factors.Cultural traits also influence sleep habits. This research evaluates sleep habits of Native Brazilian Terena children. The Terena group here studied live in the central region of Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil, on the plains; they are peaceful and dedicated mainly to agriculture. Two villages were studied, Tereré and Córrego do Meio, both in Reservations. Sleep characteristics of 67 children (40M;27F), 2 to 10 year olds, were evaluated in interviews with their mothers. The results evidenced that Cosleeping, in the same bed with family members is the standard Terena pattern present in every evaluated child. The presence of two or more beds and a mean of five or more people in each bedroom was the typical finding. The authors propose that Cosleeping and the presence of numerous family members reflect the high values attributed to family links in the Terena culture

    Abstract:

    Developmental and cultural factors affect sleep habits in childhood. The objective of this research was to determine sleep habits of children in the isolated rural African-Brazilian community of Furnas do Dionísio, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil. The members of this community are closely related descendants of the ex-slave Dionísio, and remained in relative geographical isolation for about a century. Sleep characteristics of 55 children (35M; 20F), 2 to 10 year olds, were evaluated in interviews with their mothers. The results showed that Cosleeping, in the same bed with family members, was present in 80.0% of the 2-3 year olds; decreasing to 25.0% of the 8-10 year olds. Only 5.4% of the children slept alone in their own bedroom. Mean number of persons per bedroom was 2.8. Only 7.0% of the bedrooms had TV; 98.1% slept in silence. The data obtained support the need to weigh cultural factors influence on sleep.Hábitos de dormir da criança sofrem influências fisiológicas e culturais.

    Abstract:

    Sleep behavior patterns in childhood are influenced by familial, cultural and environmental factors. In understanding sleep in Native Brazilian Bororo children, one should consider the influence of their culture on the child's sleep. This research analyzes sleep habits of Native Bororo children from the Meruri village, located in an Indian Reservation in the state of Mato Grosso. Fourty four children ( 24 M; 20 F) were evaluated; ages ranged from one month to 10 years, with a mean age of 4.9 years. Sleep characteristics were assessed by means of a standard questionnaire applied to the mothers. Cosleeping - sleeping together with family members - was a remarkable finding, in every child 0-2 year old and in 81.5% in the 2-10 years group. The second characteristic was sleeping with many people in the same room. There was an average of 5.1 people per room in the younger group and 3.9 people in the older groupO padrão de sono da criança é influenciado por fatores familiares, culturais e ambientais.
