“…[40] A study in 2021 also found that women tended to pay more attention to their pre-sleep habits to get a good sleep. [41] However, a different study conducted in 2017 shows that the implementation of sleep hygiene in women was terrible due to unhealthy lifestyles of women, such as smoking, drinking liquor, and others. [39] It is considered that no data consistency shows the dominance of better sleep hygiene practices in either women or men.…”

Background: Sleep disorders were reported among 15−35% of adolescents and adults’ population. Around 27% of college students potentially experience at least one sleep disorder. Poor sleep quality is one of the negative impacts of sleep disorders. Sleep hygiene or good sleeping habits are essential to get good sleep quality. Balinese culture has its own rules on sleeping habits related to sleep hygiene. Good knowledge and practices of Balinese culture sleep hygiene modification are expected to improve sleep quality. Methods: The study design of this research is cross sectional descriptive observational study using total sampling as the sampling method, which included all Health Faculty students at Hindu Indonesia University who met the inclusion criteria. Data was collected through a survey by distributing offline questionnaires from April to May 2023. The questionnaires used in this research modified Sleep Beliefs Scale (SBS) and Sleep Hygiene Index (SHI) questionnaires by adding sleep hygiene perspectives according to Balinese culture and customs. Validity and reliability tests were applied to the questionnaires before the survey (Pearson Correlation shows sig. < 0.05 and reliability analysis showed Cronbach Alpha > 0.60). Data collected in this research were analyzed using crosstab tabulation. Results: Thirty-one students of the Health Faculty at Hindu Indonesia University met the inclusion criteria (20 females and 11 males aged 19 to 57 years). The result of this study regarding the knowledge and practices of Balinese culture sleep hygiene modification shows 16 students (51.6%) had both adequate knowledge and practices, 4 students (12.9%) had adequate knowledge but poor practices, 2 students (6.5%) had poor knowledge but good practices, and 9 students (29%) had both poor knowledge and practices. Conclusion: Most of the Health Faculty students at Hindu Indonesia University had adequate knowledge and practices of Balinese culture sleep hygiene modification. Additionally, several students had adequate knowledge but poor practices and several students had poor knowledge but good practices, which indicates that adequate knowledge about Balinese culture sleep hygiene modification does not guarantee good practices.

“…First, we found shorter sleep duration in boys as compared to girls. Previous literature on the sex differences in sleep showed mixed results, with some revealing a poorer sleep health with low quality and quantity of sleep in girls [19] whereas some others reporting better sleep in women [20]. The reason of this may be related to students' grades, time on the Internet, etc.…”

The influence of family relationships extends significantly and enduringly in shaping the development of adolescents. Previous literature had a family environment scale (FES) to measure family relationships and conflicts. However, the FES did not measure conversation or work-life balance conflicts and it remains unclear whether these additional dimensions of family conflicts were associated with sleep and mental health issues in adolescents. We developed a new family conflict questionnaire with these two dimensions through semi-structural interviews and examined the relationships between family conflicts and sleep and mental health problems in sixty-five students in Beijing, China. We found that particularly in boys, elevated family conflicts in terms of conversation and work-life balance, were associated with more sleep and mental health issues including general anxiety. These findings suggest sex differences in the associations and future studies may investigate the causal relationships with a longitudinal design.
