Previous studies exploring the effects of the business cycle on sleep have mostly focused on the general population, and their results have been inconclusive. This study aimed to explore the effects of the 2008 economic crisis and personality traits on the subjective sleep quality of outpatients with mood disorders.

Socio-demographics, the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire-Revised, and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) were collected through in-person interviews. Candidate predictors significantly associated with PSQI scores in univariate analysis were included in a multiple linear regression model. There were 334 participants; 29% had unipolar depression, and 71% had bipolar affective disorder. The average PSQI score was 11.0 (±4.0). A higher degree of neuroticism [β(se) = 0.49 (0.07), p
