Abstract

This study utilized a descriptive type of research. The researchers focused on the sleep quality of radiologic technology students of De La Salle Health Sciences Institute for the first semester of School Year 2016-2017. Using stratified sampling, a total of 511 respondents participated in the study. The researchers used the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index developed by the University of Pittsburgh, Departments of Psychiatry, to measure sleep quality. The data were analyzed using frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, t-test for independent means, one-way analysis of variance, and Duncan’s Multiple Range Test. Based on the findings of the study, the following conclusions were drawn:1) Majority of the radiologic technology students of DLSHSI were female, fourth year, and regular students; 2) Majority of the respondents who participated in the study have poor sleep quality; 3) There were no significant differences in the sleep quality of the respondents when grouped according to gender and type of student. There was a significant difference in the sleep quality of respondents when grouped according to year level. Third year students have significantly poorer sleep quality that second year and first year students, and fourth year students have significantly poorer sleep than first year students.
