Abstract
Background: The aim of the study is to estimate the prevalence and associated factors of insomnia among older adults in the Philippines. Methods: In all, 5206 cross-sectional nationally representative data from older adults (≥ 60 years) of the 2018 Longitudinal Study on Ageing and Health in the Philippines (LSAHP) was analysed. Napping frequency and duration were assessed by self-report. Results: The prevalence of regular nappers was 35.7%, low or moderate napping (1–59 min) was 10.5% and long napping (≥ 60 min) duration was 25.2%. In the final adjusted model, older age was not significantly associated with low or moderate napping duration but older age was positively associated with long napping duration. High wealth status, physical activity and late insomnia were positively associated with low or moderate napping duration. High wealth status, urban residence, daily activity limitations, and physical activity were positively associated, and currently working status, poor self-rated health status and current alcohol use were negatively associated with long napping duration. Conclusion: One in four older adults reported long napping duration. Sociodemographic, health status and behaviour and sleep parameters were associated with low or moderate and/or long napping duration.
