Abstract


This cross-sectional survey research aimed to examine factors related to sleep quality among nursing students at Southern Network College of Nursing. The sample consistedof 251 students from the Bachelorof Nursing Program in the 1st-4th year of the academic year 2021 by simple random sampling. Research tools comprised the General Information Questionnaire,the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index,the Sleep Hygiene Questionnaire, the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS-21), and the Bedroom Environment Assessment. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Spearman  rank correlation. Results revealed that 92%of the sample were female, with a mean age of 20.97 years, and reported poor sleep quality of 74.90%. The significant negative factors related to sleep quality were sleep hygiene, anxiety, year of study, depression,and bedroom environment, respectively. Therefore, educational institutions should be concerned with students’ sleep hygiene, care for mental health problems by the year level, and provide a bedroom environment conducive to sleep for nursing students.
