Abstract: The present study examined the joint effects of sleep time parameters and negative emotionality on preschoolers' problem behaviors among 338 preschoolers. Data were collected from mothers' reports. Results indicated that:(1) the main effects of total sleep duration on preschoolers' internalizing and externalizing problems were significant, but the moderations of negative emotionality on the relationships between total sleep duration and problem behaviors were not significant; (2) the main effect of the proportion of nighttime sleep to total sleep was significant on internalizing problems but not externalizing problems; the moderation of negative emotionality on the relationship between the proportion of nighttime sleep to total sleep and internalizing problem behavior was significant. The further analysis indicated that the proportion of nighttime sleep to total sleep was negatively associated with internalizing problem behavior in preschoolers with high negative emotionality but not low negative emotionality; the moderation of negative emotionality on the relationship between the proportion of nighttime sleep to total sleep and externalizing problem behaviors was not significant.

Key words: sleep time, negative emotionality, problem behaviors, preschoolers
