There is a direct link between students and the sleep that they receive. It is vital for each student to receive an adequate night's sleep every night. Sometimes receiving the correct amount of sleep each night can be very difficult however. The focus of present research is to find out the effect of duration of sleep and sex on academic achievement and personality of students. A total of six hundred and eighty students, aged 20 to 25 years participated in this research. Purposive sampling technique was applied to select the subject. The groups including male and female were formed on the basis of duration of sleep e.g. long sleepers (more than nine hours out of twenty four hours) and short sleepers (less than six or fewer hours out of twenty four hours). These are independent variables manipulated through selection. A self-biographical sheet and Multi- dimensional assessment of personality (MAP-A) were used for the purpose of data collection. Student's last three years academic performance was consider as their academic achievement. It was found that duration of sleep and sex both produce the significant effect on personality of students. On the other hand the effect of duration of sleep was not quoted on academic achievement; while sex of the student's e.g. male and female made significant difference. It may be concluded that going to bed late is not the main thing that can affect one's academic achievement, but a connection between academic achievement and healthy sleep cycles is strongly suggested. Getting sufficient sleep help them to improve their cognitive processes and mental health. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
