People living in small cities generally enjoy better sleep than those in larger ones in China, according to the China Sleep Quality Index 2016.
近日发布的《2016全国睡眠指数报告》显示,我国小城市居民的睡眠质量普遍高于大城市居民。
The report showed that negative emotions were a major obstacle to quality sleep for people in China.
该报告显示,不良情绪是妨碍国人拥有高质量睡眠的罪魁祸首。
The research was based on feedback between January and March to online questionnaires sent to netizens in 30 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions.
这项研究是基于今年一到三月的一项在线问卷调查的反馈结果,该调查覆盖了30个省、市、自治区。
Those surveyed had an average sleep index of 69 out of a possible 100, indicating an overall gap in the quality of sleep for Chinese people, the report said.
该报告指出,这一调查设定的满分为100分,结果显示受访者平均睡眠指数为69分,这显示了中国人睡眠质量的总体差距。
The sleep index was based on seven subindices, including the ability to fall asleep quickly, the ability to have regular sleeping hours and the ability to control emotions.
该睡眠指数是依据快速入睡能力、规律睡眠能力、控制情绪能力等七个维度得出的。
Respondents scored 49.3 in their ability to control emotions, ranking the lowest of all seven subindices, which means negative emotions were the biggest contributor to bad sleep, the report said.
报告显示,受访者在控制情绪能力上的得分是49.3分,是七项评估里得分最低的一项,这表明负面情绪是睡眠不好的最主要因素。

Of all provincial capitals, Nanjing in East China's Jiangsu province, ranked highest at 71.4, while Hohhot in North China's Inner Mongolia autonomous region ranked lowest at 65.5.
