Abstract
The reciprocal nature of the relationship between mental health symptoms and sleep disturbances in females highlights the need to treat both mental health symptoms as well as sleep problems in female adolescents to improve mental and physical health. The absence of a negative effect of maltreatment on sleep may be due to the fact that the maltreated youth and comparison youth lived in the same low-income urban communities and were exposed to the same nocturnal environmental irritants.
