The Role of Stress, Anxiety, and Alcohol in Disrupted Sleep Among a College Population

DeBonis, Julie A.

Abstract Details

2011, Bachelor of Arts, Marietta College, Psychology.
This study examines the role of stress, anxiety, and alcohol in disrupted sleep patterns within a college population. The analysis is based upon six questionnaires administered to 64 females and 16 males from the Marietta College campus. Stress, anxiety, and alcohol use were examined in relation to their self-reported sleep disruption. The results show that stress is the largest contributing factor to sleep disruption, anxiety is a moderate predictor of sleep disruption, and alcohol use is a modest predictor of sleep disruption. In order to combat the effects that stress has on sleep habits, it is suggested that college students are provided with knowledge on how to manage stress before experiencing adverse effects on sleep habits.
