Methods This longitudinal cohort comprised 2069 participants with without symptoms first year Participants completed online surveys investigating sleep, insomnia, mental health at four timepoints (April 2020–May 2021). Additional trait-level cognitive/psychological questionnaires were administered 3 only. Results Six distinct classes emerged: (1) severe (21.65%), (2) moderate (32.62%), (3) good (32.82%), (4) baseline but remitting (2.27%), (5) (7.78%), (6) deteriorating into (2.85%). Persistent predicted by high levels reactivity, effort, pre-sleep cognitive arousal, depressive baseline. A combination reactivity effort reduced odds remitting. Higher deterioration months. Lastly, intolerance uncertainty emerged as only predictor trajectory classes. Conclusions Insomnia was more likely persist than remit COVID-19 Addressing appears critical for reducing persistence rates after times uncertainty.
