Associations between Finnish Seasons and Sleep in Early Childhood
Summary:
This paper investigates the impact of Finnish seasons on the nighttime sleep of infants and small children, finding that the lightest time of year shortened the night sleep of infants but also induced some beneficial effects on sleep structure.
