The effect of computer game playing habits of university students on their sleep states
In this study, it was determined that the students who played games for an average of ≥2 hours per day had later bedtime and later wake‐up time, poorer sleep quality, and higher daytime sleepiness. It was found that as the level of game addiction increased, sleep quality decreased, the severity of daytime sleepiness increased, and the wake‐up time shifted to a later time.Practice ImplicationsNurses should develop effective intervention strategies involving technology management and sleep hygiene studies to reduce game ‐playing time of students.
