“…A previous systematic review [ 2 ] of 17 studies involving 13,247 nursing students found that the prevalence of sleep disorders among nursing students during the COVID-19 pandemic ranged from 4.4 to 52.71%, with a prevalence of sleep disorders among nursing students in India of 4.4% [ 3 ], in Turkey of 28.26% [ 4 ], in the United States of 32% [ 5 ], and in Nepal of 52.71% [ 6 ]. Poor sleep quality directly affects nursing students’ physical health [ 7 ] in a manner similar to unhealthy habits like skipping breakfast or eating late-night snacks [ 8 ]. Poor sleep quality also endangers mental health, causing anxiety [ 9 ] and depression [ 10 ], as well as sleepiness during the day [ 11 ], which affects long-term academic performance [ 12 ].…”

Background Sleep quality is related to physical and mental health. Though bedtime procrastination has been identified as a potentially key source of poor sleep quality, related research is scarce. The goal of our study was to determine bedtime procrastination among nursing students and identify its influencing factors. Methods This cross-sectional study comprised 1827 junior college nursing students. The data were collected from November to December 2021 using a mobile app-based survey. We evaluated demographic factors, Big Five personality traits, self-regulatory fatigue, future time perspective, and problematic mobile phone use. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to identify independent characteristics that influence bedtime procrastination among junior college nursing students. Results The mean bedtime procrastination score in junior college nursing students was 25.11 ± 6.88. Family monthly income of 3000–6000 RMB (β = 0.740; p = 0.015), as well as that of > 6000 RMB (β = 1.708; p = 0.001), and an extroverted personality (β = 0.225; p = 0.001), self-regulatory fatigue (β = 0.135; p < 0.001), and problematic mobile phone use (β = 0.078; p < 0.001) had significant positive effects on bedtime procrastination. Conscientious personality (β = − 0.284; p = 0.003), neurotic personality (β = − 0.203; p = 0.031), and future time perspective (β = − 0.141; p < 0.001) had significant negative effects on bedtime procrastination. Conclusion The nursing students who participated in this study had moderate levels of bedtime procrastination. Bedtime procrastination was predicted by higher monthly household income; personality traits of extroversion, conscientiousness, and neuroticism; self-regulatory fatigue; future time perspective; and problematic mobile phone use. Practical implications We recommend that effective measures are needed to help alleviate bedtime procrastination and improve the health and well-being of nursing students.

“…Adapting to work in the nursing profession is markedly affecting job satisfaction and role transition for students and new graduates [ 16 , 31 ]. Nursing students experience stress from excessive academic workload and clinical practice [ 32 , 33 ]. Moreover, new graduates also show difficulties in adapting to clinical settings, experiencing reality shock because of the gap between the knowledge or skills learned in school and nursing needs and various roles expected in clinical settings [ 31 ].…”

Background The conventional Career Decision-Making Self-Efficacy Scale does not reflect the situation in Korea due to different sociocultural attributes and fails to account for the unique nursing profession and changes in healthcare. We aimed to develop and psychometrically test the Career Decision-Making Self-Efficacy Scale for Nursing Students. Methods A methodological study using a newly developed questionnaire tool and investigation of the validity and reliability of the preliminary instrument. Data were collected from 400 nursing students through an online survey conducted in May 2021. We identified 56 preliminary items through a literature review and focus group interviews. Of them, 40 were completed with a content validity index > .80. Content, construct, and criterion-related validity; internal consistency reliability; and test-retest reliability were used in the analysis. Results Exploratory factor analysis revealed three factors including 21 items: adapting to work (20.5%), understanding the major (20.2%), and goal setting (16.4%), explaining 57.1% of the total variance. As a result of confirmatory factor analysis, 17 items in the three-factor structure were validated. Reliability, as verified by the test-retest interclass correlation coefficient, was .86 and Cronbach’s α was .92. The final Career Decision-Making Self-Efficacy Scale for Nursing Students consists of 17 items: adapting to work (7 items); understanding the major (4 items); and goal setting (6 items). Conclusion The scale developed to measure the career decision-making self-efficacy of nursing students showed sufficient validity and reliability.

“…Previous studies have shown that insufficient sleep, daytime sleepiness, and poor sleep were associated with poor mental health, lower health-related quality of life, and lower academic achievement [ 21 , 24 , 27 – 30 ]. The present study revealed that chronotype was associated with mental health-related quality of life, but not with physical health-related quality of life.…”

“…Taken together, more than a few nursing students may experience sleep problems, including insomnia, insufficient sleep, and daytime sleepiness. Furthermore, the previous studies reported that insufficient sleep worsened mental health [ 27 ] and health-related quality of life [ 21 ], that daytime sleepiness interfered with academic achievement [ 24 , 28 ], and that subjective poor sleep quality was associated with both physical and mental health [ 29 , 30 ] in nursing students. Nursing students have more stress, anxiety, sleep disturbance, and have more stress-related illness than general undergraduate students [ 31 , 32 ] partially due to great amount of academic work [ 33 ].…”

Background Young adults are likely to have activities and go to bed late at night due to their age-dependent delayed endogenous circadian clock. The purpose of the present study was to clarify sleep–wake rhythm and its association with lifestyle, health-related quality of life, and academic performance among nursing students. Methods Self-reported questionnaires were distributed to undergraduate nursing students at six universities in Japan. Sleep–wake rhythm was assessed using the morningness-eveningness questionnaire. A quantitative design using the generalized linear mixed effect model was utilized to identify the factors related to the evening type among female nursing students (n = 447). Results About 18% of the participants were identified as the evening type. Evening type was associated with living alone, part-time job, and club activity. Sleep duration on weekdays was shorter, meal time duration was the shortest, and the percentages of students who skipped meals and those who gained body weight were higher in the evening type than in the morning type and intermediate type. Mental health-related quality of life was lower in the intermediate type and evening type than in the morning type, while there was no difference in physical health-related quality of life among these groups. The percentages of the nursing students who have experienced absence, tardiness, falling asleep during class, and/or interference with academic achievement were higher in the evening type than in other groups. Conclusions The present study has important implications for nursing students’ biological characteristics and lifestyle, which are associated with their health-related quality of life and academic performance.
