Adequate sleep helps students stay focused, enhances memory, and increases productivity in their studies. However, many college students experience irregular sleep patterns due to academic workload, stress, and increased use of mobile phones. Late-night study habits and excessive screen time often reduce the quality and duration of sleep. Therefore, understanding students\u2019 sleep habits is important to analyze how sleep affects their concentration and overall academic performance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><b><span lang=\"EN-US\">Objective:<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">To understand the phenomena of \u2018Sleep Habits of College Students\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><b><span lang=\"EN-US\">Literature Review:<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 12.0pt 0cm 12.0pt 0cm\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">Previous studies by Indian researchers have also highlighted the importance of sleep for students\u2019 academic performance and health. A study by G. T. Swetha and D. S. Prasad found that poor sleep quality and irregular sleep patterns can negatively affect students\u2019 academic performance and concentration. Similarly, research conducted by J. Panda and M. K. Tiwari showed that academic pressure, stress, and excessive mobile phone usage often lead to irregular sleep schedules among college students. These studies suggest that maintaining healthy sleep habits is essential for improving students\u2019 well-being and academic success.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><b><span lang=\"EN-US\">Data Collection:<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">To understand the underline issues following 5 questions were framed to be answered on Likert scale.
