Abstract
This study measured affective responses to stress and assessed if this response is different for adolescents with and without clinically significant sleep problems. We induced stress using the TSST-C. Adolescents show positive and negative affect changes in reaction to stress. The presence of sleep problems may exaggerate these changes.
