ABSTRACT

Objective:

This study aims to determine the relationship between certain risk factors and the daytime sleepiness of high school students.

Materials and Methods:

This is a descriptive-relational study, which was conducted on 2490 high school students between March 1 and April 30, 2019. The data was collected using a prepared questionnaire and the Epworth Sleepiness scale was used to evaluate the status of students’ daytime sleepiness. A statistical analysis was then carried out using the number, percentage, mean, standard deviation chi-square analysis and logistic regression analysis (enter method).

Results:

According to the Epworth Sleepiness scale score, daytime sleepiness of the high school students involved in this study was borderline, with the risk factors determining this daytime sleepiness being low socioeconomic statute of families, aged between 17 and 19, perception of school success as middle-poor, as well as spending three or more hours watching television.

Conclusion:

In order to prevent daytime sleepiness in high school students, students should spend less time watching television, there should be interdisciplinary cooperation initiatives implemented in relation to the socioeconomic factors and informative studies involving students, with families and teachers having lessons with the school nurses to help identify daytime sleepiness and learn about the measures that can be implemented to prevent this daytime sleepiness in the future.
