However, individuals classified as evening types reported higher anxiety levels, with mean STAI-S and STAI-T scores of 56.09 (±4.566) and 49.09 (±6.202), respectively (ANOVA, F=31.798, p=0.001; F=30.294, p=0.001). The mean global PSQI score was 6.00 (±2.553), with 56 % of participants reporting poor sleep quality. Evening chronotypes had significantly poorer sleep quality, as evidenced by higher PSQI scores (8.14±1.670) (ANOVA, F=43.663, p=0.001).</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>The findings underscore the need for academic institutions to reconsider the alignment of academic schedules with students' chronotypes, potentially enhancing academic performance and reducing health risks. Despite these contributions, the study has limitations, including geographical and demographic constraints and reliance on self-reported data, suggesting the need for further research to provide more comprehensive insights.</p>","PeriodicalId":13823,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Adolescent Medicine and Health","volume":" ","pages":"53-58"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143492035","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
