I do know that symptoms of ADD and ADHD are correlated with chronic poor sleep in children. I have also read that ADD and ADHD cause sleep problems. If anyone has studied gifted children in particular I haven't seen it.
We had many sleep challenges over the years. I think amoung gifted children there are some who truely need less sleep and some who have an especially difficult time winding down or staying asleep who do suffer the effect of undersleep. Lots of parents suffer along with them.
