This cross-sectional study investigated the association between the sleep quality and mental health among medical students in Himachal Pradesh, India.
Using standardized instruments Pittsburgh sleep quality index and depression anxiety stress scale-21 (PSQI and DASS-21), we assessed 400 medical students.
Results revealed that 76.75% of students were poor sleepers (PSQI >5), with a mean global PSQI score of 7.91 ± 3.85. Mental health assessment showed 63% experiencing anxiety, 32% stress, and 27% depression. Multinomial logistic regression revealed significant associations between the sleep latency and mental health outcomes, with increased sleep latency raising odds of depression (22%), anxiety (28%) and stress (35%).
Poor sleep especially sleep latency strongly predicted mental health problems among medical students.
这项横断面研究调查了印度喜马偕尔邦医科学生的睡眠质量与心理健康之间的关联。
我们使用标准化工具匹兹堡睡眠质量指数和抑郁焦虑压力量表21(PSQI和DASS-21)对400名医科学生进行了评估。
结果显示,76.75%的学生睡眠质量差(PSQI>5),PSQI总体平均得分为7.91±3.85。心理健康评估显示,63%的学生有焦虑情绪,32%有压力,27%有抑郁情绪。多项逻辑回归显示,入睡潜伏期与心理健康结果之间存在显著关联,入睡潜伏期延长会增加抑郁(22%)、焦虑(28%)和压力(35%)的几率。
睡眠质量差尤其是入睡潜伏期长强烈预示着医科学生存在心理健康问题。
