“…On the other hand, the effect of mental health on sleep has been demonstrated in many studies, and a review by Lam [ 43 ] literature points to a significant and possible causal relationship between early childhood sleep disorders and the development of mental health problems such as anxiety, depression, and ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) in adolescence. A study of sleep among primary school students in Iran also showed a significant correlation between sleep habits and mental health [ 44 ]. Therefore, it can be inferred that learning burnout can affect the mental health of primary school students through learning pressure factors, and the mental health of primary school students will further affect their sleep quality, so the mediating effect of mental health between the two is established.…”

Due to the growth of research on sleep, mental health, and learning burnout on healthy growth and its related public health significance of adolescents, this study aimed to provide a deeper understanding of the effect of mental health and learning burnout on sleep among primary school students. The sleep quality (subjective sleep quality, sleep time, sleep latency, sleep duration, sleep efficiency, sleep disturbance, and daytime dysfunction), mental health, and learning burnout (exhaustion, learning cynicism, and reduced efficacy) of 900 students of grades 3–6 in primary schools were assessed in 2020. The PSQI scores of participants were 4.19 ± 2.545, of which a number of 322 (39.03%) students had sleep disturbance (PSQI scores ≧ 5). Binary logistic regression analysis showed that screen time (OR = 1.518, 95% CI: 1.164–1.980), ranking status (OR = 0.659, 95% CI: 0.480–0.907), learning burnout (OR = 1.088, 95% CI: 1.067–1.108), and mental health (OR = 4.672, 95% CI: 1.954–11.173) were the influencing factors for sleep quality of grade 3–6 students. According to the mediation effect analyses, mental health played a mediating effect (58.73% of the total effect) on the relationship between learning burnout and sleep quality. In conclusion, primary school students in Hunan of China have prominent sleep problems, and the daytime dysfunction caused by sleep problems is the most serious. Learning burnout positively predicted poorer sleep quality, and mental health played a mediating effect on the relationship between learning burnout and sleep quality.

“…In addition, sleep disorders were positively associated with suicidal and self-harming behaviors in adolescents [34]. Lack of sleep can also cause poor concentration, memory loss, behavioral problems such as irritability, emotional instability, problematic behavior, mental illness and poor academic performance in adolescents [35][36][37].…”

In the context of the COVID-19 pandemic and under the pressure of high competitiveness for higher education in China, junior high school students' mental health is facing greater challenges. Understanding the time allocation of study and sleep is necessary for developing effective prevention and treatment programs. Based on a survey of 31,057 junior high school students in 47 junior high schools in Gansu Province, mainland China, the study analyzed the associations of time spent on study and sleep with anxiety and depressive symptoms among junior high school students through chi-square test, ANOVA, logistic regression model and threshold regression model. It was found that 18.4%-21.1% of junior high school students had mild and above anxiety and depressive symptoms. Female junior high school students were more likely to have anxiety and depressive symptoms. In addition, time spent on study was significantly and positively associated with anxiety and depressive symptoms and time spent on sleep was significantly and negatively associated with anxiety and depressive symptoms. Late sleepers were more likely to suffer from anxiety and depressive tendencies. Reducing after-school study time appropriately and getting more sleep are beneficial in reducing anxiety and depression, but it is more important to ensure time of sleep. For the reduction of anxiety and depressive symptoms, the maximum time spent on study after school should not exceed 1.92 h, the minimum time spent on sleep at night should be more than 7 h and a 40-min lunch break should be guaranteed at noon.
