Abstract Synopsis

  • The article presents a new, more complex model suggesting that the relationship between technology use and sleep is bidirectional, meaning technology can affect sleep and sleep problems can influence technology use.
  • The review revises previous ideas by adding mechanisms such as technology being used as a time filler or emotional regulation tool before sleep, and emphasizes the importance of individual factors that can either protect against or increase vulnerability to sleep disruptions related to technology.
  • The ultimate goal of this updated model is to improve understanding, guide public health efforts, and stimulate further research into how much, for whom, and through what mechanisms technology impacts sleep.]
