In older subjects, a reduction in continuous snoring was accompanied by an increase in apnoeic snoring. Subjective snoring frequency correlated with continuous snoring in students only. A positive family history of snoring increased the odds ratio for self-reported snoring but not for recorded snoring. It has been shown that snoring frequency can vary depending on age and that the congruency between perceived snoring frequency and recorded snoring is influenced by the age of an individual.
