Summary: | This study was conducted to examine the association between pharmacy students' sleep quality and students' academic performance (cGPA) among undergraduates' students in UiTM Puncak Alam Campus. A questionnaire on sleep quality, factor affecting sleep disturbances and consequences of sleeping quality had been carried out to undergraduate students from first until fourth year. 400 questionnaires were distributed and 301 questionnaires were returned. The result showed that there was a statistically association between sleep quality and cGPA. Sleeping disturbance was very prevalent among pharmacy students because most of the factors relate to their course work. Majority of the pharmacy students had difficulty to concentrate in the class due to sleepiness. Sleep habit and quality among undergraduates pharmacy students were comparable to those reported in European and Asian studies. Developing students' awareness regarding the importance of sleep quality should be encouraged. |
