Local 1: Sleep Quality and Psychological Well-Being among Filipino High School Students
Arboleda (2022) conducted a study to examine the relationship between sleep quality and
psychological well-being among senior high school students in a private university in the Philippines. The
study utilized a descriptive-correlational research design and involved 328 senior high school students
selected through stratified random sampling. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Ryff's Scale
of Psychological Well-Being (RPSWB) were used as standardized psychological instruments to collect
data. Descriptive and inferential statistics were employed for data analysis.
The findings indicated that senior high school students had poor sleep quality and a moderate
level of psychological well-being. The study revealed a significant relationship between sleep quality and
sex, year level, and academic strand. Additionally, a significant relationship was observed between
psychological well-being and academic strand. However, no significant relationship was found between
sleep quality and psychological well-being.
Hence, the study suggests that students can achieve a good level of psychological well-being
despite experiencing poor sleep quality. It highlights the importance of collaborative efforts among
guidance counselors, school administrators, and teachers to educate and develop sleep hygiene
practices among senior high school students.
Local 2: Sleeping Habits, Classroom Behaviour and Academic Performance of Senior High School
Students
Toyong (2020) investigated the relationship between sleeping habits, classroom behavior, and
academic performance of senior high school Electrical Installation and Maintenance (EIM) students. The
study employed a descriptive and correlational design and included 119 students selected through
simple random sampling.
The study revealed that 88% of the students were sleep deprived, with an average sleep
duration of less than 6 hours. The main reasons for sleeping late were the use of Facebook and
Messenger, playing mobile games, and completing assignments and homework. The most prevalent
classroom behaviors were feeling sleepy during class discussions, sleeping in class during vacant periods,
and feeling tired during classes.
Furthermore, the study found a significant negative relationship between the number of hours
of night sleep and sleepiness in the classroom. It also discovered a significant positive relationship
between the number of hours of night sleep and academic performance. Conversely, students with less
sleep demonstrated lower academic performance. Additionally, a significant negative relationship was
observed between sleepiness in the classroom and academic performance.
These findings suggest the need for policy makers, school administrators, and teachers to
educate students and parents about the proper use of mobile phones and other gadgets. The study also
highlights the importance of implementing sleep routines and well-designed policies on assigning
homework to promote high academic achievement among students.
Local 3: Sleep Deprivations’ Health Effects on People’s Lives

According to Peligrino (2021), it is crucial for children and teenagers to get an adequate amount
of sleep, particularly those who are younger than five years old. Insufficient sleep can result from factors
such as work schedules, daily stressors, disruptive bedroom environments, and medical conditions.
While a healthy diet and positive lifestyle habits can promote better sleep, chronic sleep deprivation may
indicate the presence of a sleep disorder.
Sleep deprivation is a general term used to describe a state of inadequate quantity or quality of
sleep, which includes both voluntary and involuntary sleeplessness as well as circadian rhythm sleep
disorders. When individuals experience sleep deprivation, they are prone to accidents, impaired
judgment, and are more likely to make mistakes and poor decisions. In fact, staying awake for 24 hours
can lead to reduced hand-to-eye coordination equivalent to having a blood alcohol content of 0.1.
Consequently, sleep deprivation contributes to road accidents and work-related injuries.
The consequences of sleep deprivation extend beyond physical risks. Lack of sleep can also
impact a child's school performance and increase the risk of emotional problems, including depression.
Various factors can contribute to insufficient sleep, such as shift work, meeting deadlines, a noisy or
unsuitable sleeping environment, excessive use of electronic devices before bedtime, and underlying
medical conditions like depression, sleep apnea, or chronic pain. Furthermore, individuals who provide
nighttime care for others may also experience disrupted sleep patterns.
Therefore, sleep deprivation has significant health effects on individuals' lives. It is essential to
address the factors that contribute to inadequate sleep and promote healthy sleep habits to mitigate the
negative consequences on physical and mental well-being.
