“…While we did not determine a correlation between insomnia and caffeine consumption, it is thought that when the students consume these 2 stimulants together, it causes the students to go to bed at a later hour. It is known that our biological clock becomes unbalanced due to irregular bedtime and going to bed late, so the prevalence of insomnia increases in these people (de Souza Lopes, Rodrigues Robaina, & Rotenberg, ). It was found that the bedtime of our students was 04.07 ± 7.42.…”

“…In the light of this information, it can be said that depression is an important factor affecting insomnia in the students participating in the study. de Souza Lopes, Rodrigues Robaina, and Rotenberg () stated that depression increased insomnia and insomnia could lead to a vicious cycle by increasing the depression. Follow‐up ANOVAs found the chronic insomnia group to have significantly worse fatigue as well as significantly increased levels of depression, anxiety, and stress, and lower quality of life.…”

Background Non-regular workers are steadily increasing on account of improving corporate productivity. They are classified as non-permanent, part-time, or non-typical workers. Non-regular work has a negative impact on workers' physical and mental health. This study analyzed the relationship between non-permanent, part-time and non-typical work and insomnia among Korean wage workers, and investigated the differences and interactions between different work patterns. Methods The Fifth Korean Working Conditions Survey was used in this study. Non-regular work patterns were classified into 7 types: type 1, sole non-permanent; type 2, sole part-time; type 3, sole non-typical; type 4, part-time-non-typical; type 5, non-permanent-non-typical; type 6, non-permanent-part-time; type 7, all inclusive. Insomnia was measured on a scale from “normal sleep” to “insomnia” based on the 3-item Minimal Insomnia Symptom Scale. Multiple logistic regression was used to analyze the association between non-regular work patterns and insomnia among wage workers. Results After multivariate adjustment, a significantly increased odds ratio (OR) for insomnia was found in types 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 of non-regular work patterns compared to regular work patterns. After stratification for shift and night work, the OR of the group with shift and night work was higher than that of the group without shift and night work. Conclusions Insomnia was significantly associated with non-regular work patterns. This association was prominent in workers with shifts and night work. This finding suggests that proper work patterns may be needed to reduce the risk of insomnia among Korean wage workers and workers who initially had insomnia should consider these results before placement.
