“…During school days, most 51(46.8%) respondents sleep for 1-3 hours on average, 45(41.3%) percent respondents sleep for 4-6 hours on average, while 13 (11.9%) respondents sleep for 7-9 hours. This result complements that of (Raley, et al 2016) who found out that on the average students had 6.40 hours, 6.74 hours and 6.82 hours of sleep daily. During weekends, most 69(63.…”

“…Male students who have a lower mean (SD) hours of sleep of (4.16±.35) compared to female students who have a mean (SD) hours of sleep of (5.15±.49) performed better than their female counterparts. This corresponds with the result of literature review by Abraham and Scaria (2015), which revealed that decreased sleep has a positive impact on students' academic performance, but contrary to Raley, et al (2016), who reported no significant difference in the quality of sleep by gender. The findings of this study seem to differ from the popular opinion that adults should sleep between 7-8 hours in the night.…”

This study investigated sleep deprivation and academic performance on nursing students of University of Calabar. A self-structured instrument was administered to a sample of 109 students. Data was analyzed using SPSS version 20.0. Most, 55(50.5. %) of the respondents start depriving themselves of sleep immediately after resumption. On school days, most 53 (48.6%) respondents sleep for 1–3 hours on average; while 40(36.7%) respondents sleep for 4–6 hours on average. During weekends most, 69(63.3%) respondents sleep for 4-6 hours on average, however, during examinations, majority 73(67. %), sleep for 1–3 hours on average. 64(58.6%) take different substances to keep awake. More male 69(63.3%) respondents start depriving themselves of sleep immediately after resumption, as against 50(46%) female respondents. Male students have an average sleep of 5.02 hours during schools days; 5.07 hours during weekends, and 2.39 hours during examinations, while female students have an average sleep of 5.25 hours during schools days, 5.43 hours during weekends, and 4.77 hours during examinations. Male students have a lower mean (SD) hours of sleep of (4.16±.35) compared to female students mean (SD) hours of (5.15±.49). The result further showed a statistically significant relationship between sleep deprivation and academic performance, also, a statistically significant influence of sleep deprivation on academic performance of male and female nursing students. Recommendations: nursing students should be properly counseled on the importance of adequate sleep to their academic performance. They should only deprive themselves of sleep during school days and less during examination.

“…Adolescents who experience greater sleep inconsistency perform worse in school. [28][29][30][31] Although numerous studies have investigated the relationship between sleep and students' academic performance, these studies utilized subjective measures of sleep duration and/or quality, typically in the form of self-report surveys; very few to date have used objective measures to quantify sleep duration and quality in students. One exception is a pair of linked studies that examined short-term benefits of sleep on academic performance in college.…”

Sleep quality, duration, and consistency are associated with better academic performance in college students

Although numerous survey studies have reported connections between sleep and cognitive function, there remains a lack of quantitative data using objective measures to directly assess the association between sleep and academic performance. In this study, wearable activity trackers were distributed to 100 students in an introductory college chemistry class (88 of whom completed the study), allowing for multiple sleep measures to be correlated with in-class performance on quizzes and midterm examinations. Overall, better quality, longer duration, and greater consistency of sleep correlated with better grades. However, there was no relation between sleep measures on the single night before a test and test performance; instead, sleep duration and quality for the month and the week before a test correlated with better grades. Sleep measures accounted for nearly 25% of the variance in academic performance. These findings provide quantitative, objective evidence that better quality, longer duration, and greater consistency of sleep are strongly associated with better academic performance in college. Gender differences are discussed.

Latar belakang:. Di semester 1, mahasiswa baru dihadapkan dengan jadwal perkuliahan yang padat dan persiapan kegiatan rutin tahunan inaugurasi yang cukup menyita waktu. Untuk memberikan gambaran tentang partisipasi dan persepsi mahasiswa terhadap kegiatan inaugurasi. Metode: Penelitian ini merupakan studi deskriptif dengan menggunakan kuesioner yang telah divalidasi. Subjek penelitian adalah seluruh mahasiswa Fakulta Kedokteran Universitas Muslim Indonesia angkatan 2017 dan 2018 yang berpartisipasi pada kegiatan inaugurasi angkatannya dan terhitung masih aktif sebagai mahasiswa FK UMI saat penelitian berlangsung. Teknik pengumpulan sampel menggunakan total sampling. Hasil: Mayoritas responden berpartisipasi sebagai panitia dan pengisi acara inaugurasi (57,2%) dan menghabiskan 1–2 bulan untuk persiapan inaugurasi (51,69%). Sebanyak 46,77% responden menggunakan lebih dari 6 jam setiap hari untuk persiapan inaugurasi. Mayoritas responden berpendapat bahwa inaugurasi mengganggu konsentrasi belajar (80%) dan menyebabkan waktu belajar berkurang (92%) namun tetap perlu dilaksanakan (80,3%). Kesimpulan: Kegiatan inaugurasi cukup menyita waktu sehingga mengganggu konsentrasi dan waktu belajar namun perlu dilaksanakan.
