"Later School Start Time Linked to Fewer Teen Car Crashes"
By Rosanne Skirble, 16 December 2008
A one-hour delay of school starting time in a large school district in Kentucky is
giving teens a better night's sleep and helping them remain more alert in the
classroom. But it may also be saving their lives: The later school start times are
associated with fewer car crashes among 17- and 18-year-old drivers, according to a
study published in the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine.
Crash rates dropped 16 percent in the county that changed the high school start times
one hour later and increased about 8 percent in the rest of the state during the same
period of time.
Fred Danner is chairman of the Department of Education and
Counseling Psychology at the University of Kentucky and lead author of the
study. He says the work did not control for risky behavior like cell phone use or
alcohol consumption while driving. But he says the findings are consistent with
what already has been reported about the harmful effects of even mild sleep
deprivation on daytime alertness.
"A lot of the things we consider typical adolescent behavior - mood swings, lack of
focus, spacey, clumsy - those are exactly the same symptoms that we find in sleep
labs of sleep deprivation," he says.
Danner says a shift underway in many school districts toward earlier school start
times for teens comes at time when the adolescent sleep cycle is pushing the body
clock an hour later at night.
"And the school start times is pulling them out of bed an hour earlier. That is two
hours every single night. By the end of the week, they build up a devastating sleep
debt."
Danner doesn't expect high schools across the country to immediately adopt later
classroom start times. But the move does address the issue of teen sleep and health,
which he says must be taken more seriously.
