Abstract
Despite being a vital function, sleep is not usually given priority, particularly among college students. University students may suffer from sleep deprivation because it affects their ability to concentrate, remember things, control their emotions, and handle stress. Stress levels and the quality of one's sleep are inversely correlated. The great majority of research papers, if not all of them, on wellness interventions and sleep quality concentrate on the direct effects of stress reduction strategies on sleep quantity. The primary goal of the study is to determine whether undergraduate university participants who received quality sleep education, which emphasized teaching sleep hygiene techniques to enhance the quality of their sleep, would perceive wellness levels significantly higher than those who received active control. The proper quantity of sleep that college students get will be the study's independent variable, while the impact of screen time on those students will be its dependent variable.
