The relationship between exam anxiety levels and sleep quality of senior high school students

Öz:

Objectives: This study used a descriptive, cross-sectional and correlational research design to determine the relationship between exam anxiety levels and sleep quality of senior high school students.Methods: Research data were collected in a high school in Istanbul, Turkey between January 1–31, 2017. 104 highschool students volunteered to participate in the research for a sample size (n=104). The rate of return is 86.6%. Datawere collected using the Information Form, the Exam Anxiety Inventory and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. SPSSstatistical software program was used to evaluate the data.Results: 55.8% of the students were female and their mean age was 17.27 years. 77.9% of the students stated that theuniversity entrance exam was very important, and 74.8% stated that they did not have a sleep problem before theystarted to prepare for the university entrance exam. There was a weak positive relationship between the subjectivesleep quality of students and the Delusion sub-dimension of the Exam Anxiety Inventory (r=0.258; p<0.01), a weak positive relationship between Affectivity sub-dimension (r=0.259; p<0.01) and a weak positive relationship between thetotal score of exam anxiety (r=0.272; p<0.01). There was a weak positive relationship between sleep disorder and theDelusion sub-dimension (r=0.210; p<0.05), a weak positive relationship between Affectivity sub-dimension (r=0.291;p<0.01) and a weak positive relationship between the total score of exam anxiety (r=0.273; p<0.01). The levels of boththe Delusional dimension (p>0.05) and the Affectivity dimension (p>0.05) of the students did not affect subjectivesleep quality. While the students' Delusion level did not affect the level of sleep disorder (p=0.701 >0.05), their Affectivity level increased the level of sleep disorder (ß=0.028).Conclusion: Research data illustrated that senior high school students had exam anxieties which negatively affectedtheir sleep quality.
