Abstract
Background/ problem: The rise of coffee shops has made coffee consumption a lifestyle among college students, especially during the pandemic. Coupled with screen time activities, using gadgets for a long time can affect sleep quality and health.
Objective/ purpose: This study aims to analyze the relationship between coffee consumption, screen-time activity duration, and sleep quality of university students during the new normal period.
Design and Methodology: This study used a cross-sectional study design involving 267 students of the Faculty of Health Sciences of Universitas Pembangunan Nasional Veteran Jakarta (UPNVJ) who were selected using the Proportionate Stratified Random Sampling technique. The research instrument used questionnaires to measure coffee consumption, screen time, and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI).
Results: Most respondents had poor sleep quality (53.6%), were heavy coffee consumers (56.2%), and did excessive screen time activities (57.3%). There was a significant relationship between coffee consumption and student sleep patterns (p = 0.006; POR = 2.053, 95% CI: 1.256- 3.356) and a significant relationship between screen-time and sleep patterns of Health Science UPNVJ students (p = 0.018; POR = 1.863, 95% CI: 1.140- 3.044).
Conclusion and Implications: Coffee consumption and duration of excessive screen time activities are closely related to students' sleep quality.
