Abstract

<p>The current study examined factors affecting sleep quality (e.g., sleeping and eating habits), which result in increased Cumulative Fatigue Symptoms Index (CFSI) scores, in a sample of college nursing students. Additionally, contributing factors were also compared in the lecture and training periods. Participants were 97 third-year university nursing students. Results indicated poor sleeping quality in both the lecture and training periods, and shortened sleep duration also was observed in the training period. In the lecture period, feelings of mental fatigue were high, while feelings of physical fatigue were elevated during the training period. Breakfast consumption during the training period, when the amount of skills and information learned enhances mental fatigue, was found to be a factor affecting CFSI scores. Furthermore, results suggest that learning time is associated with a fear of insecurity during the lecture period.</p>
