Investigation of The Effect of Psychological Adaptation Skills on Sleep Quality: A Study on Students of The Faculty of Sports Sciences

Abstract

Adequate sleep is vital for individuals. Many factors affect sleep quality. Some of these factors are expressed as depression, anxiety, and stress. The impact of depression, anxiety, and stress on sleep quality is an important issue that needs to be revealed. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effect of psychological adaptation skills of Ataturk University and Erzurum Technical University sports sciences faculty students on sleep quality. A total of 358 students, 119 female and 239 male, studying at sports science faculties constitute the sample group. Three parts were used in the data collection process: demographic information form, sleep quality scale, and DAS-21 scale. The relational screening model was used in the research. Findings show that as participants' depression, anxiety, and stress levels increase, their sleep quality scores also increase. Correlation and multiple regression analyses were used in the study. As a result of the correlation and multiple regression analysis, it is seen that psychological adaptation skills positively predict sleep quality. As participants' sleep quality levels increase, their psychological adaptation skills increase.
