Objective: The study aimed to determine sleep quality and factors affecting it in patients with chronic psychological disorders. Results: According to the data obtained, the mean scores of PSQI were as follows: sleep duration, 1.17±1.09 h; sleep efficacy, 1.23±0.97; daytime dysfunction, 1.40±1.01; sleep disorder, 1.16±0.83; sleep latency, 2.80±1.58; sleeping pills, 1.35±0.76; and global PSQI, 9.13±2.37. In total, 93.2% of the patients were found to have a bad sleeping quality. As the global PSQI scores increased, sleeping time, sleeping pill use, sleeping quality, sleeping activity, sleep latency, and daytime dysfunction scores also increased (p<0.05). In addition, there was a positive correlation among them. The correlation between the global PSQI scores and marital status and between the place of residence and occupational-professional status was found to be significant (p<0.05). Conclusion:As patients with chronic psychiatric disorders have frequent sleep problems, planning interventions for the sleep problems of patients can be recommended.
