The aim of the present study was to identify the subjective quality of sleep, the chronotype, the frequency of nightmares and the propensity for nightmares in university students depending on whether they are sufficiently physically active (SPA) or insufficiently physically active (IPA).
The study involved 855 students (55.67% women) of which 38.01% are IPA. Evaluations were conducted using the Brief Physical Activity Assessment Tool, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, the Nightmare Frequency Scale, the Nightmare Proneness Scale and The Composite Scale of Morningness.
IPA students showed a greater probability of presenting [OR=2.02] poor sleep quality (> 5 PSQI points) compared with SPA students (<.001). The IPA participants showing a greater probability [OR=3.70] of having an evening chrontoype (<.001), report a higher frequency of nightmares (<.001) and a greater propensity for nightmares (<.001) compared with the SPA participants. In terms of propensity for nightmares an interaction was found between gender and level of PA (F (3,843)=11.360, =.001).
The possibility of implementing strategies to increase the level of PA among university students should be explored, as well as offering sleep hygiene programs that are effective when used in brief sessions.
本研究的目的是根据大学生身体活动是否充足（SPA）或不足（IPA），确定他们的主观睡眠质量、昼夜节律类型、噩梦频率和噩梦倾向。
该研究涉及855名学生（55.67%为女性），其中38.01%为身体活动不足者。使用简短身体活动评估工具、匹兹堡睡眠质量指数、噩梦频率量表、噩梦倾向量表和晨型综合量表进行评估。
与身体活动充足的学生相比，身体活动不足的学生睡眠质量差（PSQI得分>5分）的可能性更大[OR=2.02]（<.001）。与身体活动充足的参与者相比，身体活动不足的参与者表现出更有可能[OR=3.70]具有晚型昼夜节律（<.001），报告的噩梦频率更高（<.001），噩梦倾向更大（<.001）。在噩梦倾向方面，发现性别与身体活动水平之间存在交互作用（F(3,843)=11.360，=.001）。
应探索实施提高大学生身体活动水平策略的可能性，以及提供在短时间内使用时有效的睡眠卫生计划。
