{"title":"A Mixed-Methods, Multimedia Pilot Study to Investigate Sleep Irregularity Determinants Among Undergraduate Students.","authors":"Matthew Marquardt, Sheila Pontis","doi":"10.1177/08901171241240818","DOIUrl":"10.1177/08901171241240818","url":null,"abstract":"<p><strong>Purpose: </strong>To pilot a novel approach investigating the interplay of social and institutional determinants influencing university undergraduate student sleep patterns.</p><p><strong>Design: </strong>A two-part, three-phase mixed-methods approach.</p><p><strong>Setting: </strong>A mid-size US university conducted in spring and fall 2020.</p><p><strong>Participants: </strong>191 undergraduate students (69 first-years, 43 second-years, 48 third-years, 31 fourth-years).</p><p><strong>Method: </strong>For Part A, participants texted their activities and emotions in real time, producing a data-rich, weeklong diary of comprehensive activity logs, emoticons, multimedia submissions, and juxtapositions of ideal vs real schedules.
