The poll, which surveyed 1,500 people between the ages of 25 and 55 in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Germany, Mexico and Japan, found that the Japanese reported an average sleep time of only 6 hours and 22 minutes, while Americans averaged 6 hours and 31 minutes.
The average participant had a BMI of 30, and was 48 years old. The researchers found that total sleep time decreased as BMI increased, except in the severely obese group. Men slept an average of 27 minutes less than women, and overweight and obese patients slept less than patients with normal BMIs. The difference in total sleep time between patients with a normal BMI and the other patients was 16 minutes per day, reaching 112 minutes, or 1.86 hours, over a week.
