| dc.description.abstract | Introduction: Insomnia is a sleep disorder that affects the ability to fall asleep, stay asleep, or achieve restorative sleep. The impact of insomnia can be addressed by various sleep habits. The objectives of this study were to analyze the prevalence and behavioral factors of insomnia and the association between sleep hygiene and insomnia. Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out among 384 Taman Beringin, Jinjang Utara residents. There are around 8,000 flats and 2,000 terrace houses in Taman Beringin. The survey, comprising insomnia and sleep hygiene questionnaires, was administered to the participant to assess behavioral factors and their related associations with sleep hygiene and insomnia. Result: Among the respondents, the majority (44.0%) experienced no insomnia, with 39.6% falling into the “Subthreshold” category. “Moderate” insomnia affected 14.3% of respondents, indicating a significant impact on insomnia, while “Severe” insomnia was least prevalent at 2.1%. Conclusion: The study revealed a significant association between behavioral factors and sleep hygiene and insomnia. Further research is needed to identify other factors that could strengthen the study’s effectiveness. Keywords: Insomnia, sleep hygiene, prevalence, associations, behavioral factors. | |
