Eveningness preference has been associated with lower sleep quality and higher stress response compared with morningness preference. In the current study, female morning (n = 27) and evening (n = 28) types completed the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and were additionally challenged with an arithmetic stress-induction task. Evening types reported lower subjective sleep quality and longer sleep latency than morning types. Furthermore, evening types reported higher self-perceived stress… 
The influence of sleep complaints on the association between chronotype and negative emotionality in young adults
TLDR
The results indicate that eveningness-preference is an independent risk factor for higher negative emotionality regardless of the effects of age, gender, circadian misalignment and sleep complaints, and argue against the assumption that indicators of mental health problems in evening-type individuals can be explained exclusively on the basis of disturbed sleep.
The influence of subjective sleep quality on the association between eveningness and depressive symptoms
TLDR
The results suggest that indicators of depression observed in evening-type individuals cannot be attributed exclusively to disturbed sleep and suggest that interventions that target both sleep quality and dysfunctional cognitive styles would be optimal to promote well-being in Evening- type individuals.
Morningness–eveningness and daytime functioning in university students: the mediating role of sleep characteristics
TLDR
There are multiple possible mechanisms through which morningness–eveningness affects daytime functioning in university students, and sleep characteristics are a significant mechanism.
Morningness–eveningness interferes with perceived health, physical activity, diet and stress levels in working women: A cross-sectional study
TLDR
The data show that evening preference behaves as a health risk in terms of associating with poor perceived health, and suggest that this effect might be mediated by health behaviours and stress.
Temporal associations between morningness/eveningness, problematic social media use, psychological distress and daytime sleepiness: Mediated roles of sleep quality and insomnia among young adults
TLDR
The present study's results emphasize the importance of promoting healthy sleep habits and sleep hygiene behaviours, and that of early detection of sleep problems among individuals who have the eveningness chronotype, because this would significantly improve their health outcomes.
Morning preference is associated with subjective happiness among Japanese female workers: A moderation analysis by sleep characteristics from the SLEPT study.
TLDR
It is found that subjective happiness was significantly associated with higher MEQ score and sleep efficiency but only in female, and a possible strategy to maintain and improve subjective happiness of female workers who have evening preference was discussed.
Physiological Differences in Stress Reactivity between Morning and Evening Chronotypes
TLDR
Differences in cardiac measures (heart rate, heart rate variability (HRV) as well as salivary cortisol in morning and evening types at baseline and under stress at different times of the day are explored.
Are all evening-types doomed? Latent class analyses of perceived morningness–eveningness, sleep and psychosocial functioning among emerging adults
TLDR
This study is the first to identify a subgroup of evening-types who report good sleep characteristics and similar levels of intrapersonal adjustment and academic achievement to that of the majority of morning-types, which appears to be associated more with differences in sleep characteristics than with morningness–eveningness per se.
Morningness–eveningness and affect: the mediating roles of sleep quality and metacognitive beliefs
Morningness (a preference for earlier rise and bed times) is associated with well-being, better sleep quality, and positive affect, while eveningness is associated with poor sleep quality, negative
Sleep and chronotype in relation to work-related stress and negative affect: The moderating role of a flexible start of work
Objectives The present study investigated the relationships between sleep (sleep duration and need for additional sleep time in the morning), chronotype, work-related stress, and negative affect in

TLDR

TLDR
These subjects built up a sleep debt during the week and extended their duration of sleep at the weekend, and did not rate themselves more sleepy than other types, despite the fact that the results showed a clear link between subjectively evaluated daytime somnolence and sleep debt.

A self-assessment questionnaire to determine morningness-eveningness in human circadian rhythms.
TLDR
Although the questionnaire appears to be valid, further evaluation using a wider subject population is required, as sleep habits are an important déterminant of peak time there are other contibutory factors, and these appear to be partly covered by the questionnaire.
