Abstract
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate sleep quality and examine the relationship between poor sleep quality and low academic performance.
Methods: A total of 548 students at Imam Mohammad Ibn Saud University in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, participated in this cross-sectional study. A questionnaire included socio-demographic questions, sleep quality questions, questions about academic performance, and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Various lifestyle factors, socio-demographic characteristics, and academic performance were examined among university students, and sleep quality was assessed.
Results: Observable correlations were noted, where gender was a paramount factor, with a more significant proportion of females demonstrating substandard sleep quality than males (p < 0.001). Importantly, those suffering from concurrent chronic illnesses showed a distinct link to poor sleep quality (p < 0.003). In contrast, no significant connections were discerned about marital status, educational year, academic performance scores (GPA), intake of caffeinated beverages, employment situation, or daytime sleeping routines. These observations offer intricate perspectives on the multifaceted correlation of factors that impact sleep quality in university undergraduate students.
Conclusion: The outcomes highlighted the necessity for specific initiatives, acknowledging the significance of gender and health conditions in fostering ideal sleep wellness within this population group

Key words: Sleep quality, academic performance, daytime sleep, gender, correlation factors
