The relationship between sleep quality and nomophobia among medical students
The high prevalence of poor sleep quality and nomophobia among medical students is concerning and highlights the urgent need for targeted interventions. Implementing educational programs on sleep hygiene and smartphone use, along with regular screening for sleep disturbances and accessible psychological support services, could effectively improve student well-being. Addressing academic stressors through institutional policy changes may also help reduce the burden of poor sleep quality in this population.
