Abstract

The purpose of this study was to clarify the relative strength of factors that affect quality of sleep in female university students. Subjects included 126 women in year 2-4 of A college. The Japanese Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI-J) was used to measure quality of sleep. Results of multiple regression analysis showed a relationship between PSQI-J and several factors, including "anxiety (total score of STAI A–Trait)" (β=.230, p<.01), "frequency at which rising time was early" (β=.221, p<.01), and "chilliness of feet" (β=.191, p<.05). These findings indicate that it is important to consider measures that focus on these factors to improve quality of sleep. Among the factors identified, anxiety was most likely to be associated with quality of sleep. These results suggest that maintaining mental health may help improve quality of sleep.
