Wolters Kluwer survey finds Americans believe GenAI is coming to healthcare but worry about content

46% of People with Below-Average Sleep Quality Rate Their Mental Health As Poor
There’s a strong connection between mental health and sleep, which was reflected in findings of an April 2024 survey of 1,000 U.S. adults by Sleepfoundation.org. The survey found that those who describe their mental health as below average sleep less, and when they do slumber, the quality of their sleep is worse. Those in this group sleep for nearly an hour less per night than those with above-average mental health (6.3 hours vs. 7.2 hours). They are also three times as likely to rate their sleep quality as poor or very poor.
