Methods: This research study was a descriptive survey and participants were patients hospitalized with psychiatric disorders. Measures were depression and quality of sleep scales. Data were analyzed using t-test, ANOVA and multiple regression.
Results: Variables significantly influencing participants’ quality of sleep were depression, level of pain and taking antidepressants. These variables explained 26% of the variance in quality of sleep. Variables significantly influencing participants’ depression were quality of sleep and level of pain. These variables explained 27.0% of the variance in depression.
Conclusion: Findings indicate a strong relationship between quality of sleep and depression. More research is needed to better assess quality of sleep and level of depression in these patients.
