Background: In coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) epidemic, one way to prevent the prevalence is quarantine that has negative psychological effects, especially for students. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of psychological well-being in predicting sleep quality during COVID-19 quarantine in high school students.
Methods: This study was descriptive-correlational. A sample (n = 212) was selected by convenience sampling method from all high school students in Kalaleh, Golestan Province, Iran. Data were collected using the online demographic questionnaire, Reef Psychological Well-being Scale (PWB), and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Finally, the data were analyzed using Pearson correlation coefficient and stepwise regression in SPSS software (P ≤ 0.05).
Findings: Based on the results obtained by regression analysis, psychological well-being was able to predict sleep quality (P = 0.011, F = 6.54, R² = 0.030). Among the psychological well-being variables, “environmental mastery” (P = 0.001, T = -5.379, R² = 0.120) had the highest ability to predict sleep problems in high school students during COVID-19 quarantine. The results also showed that the components of gender, education, and ethnicity did not play a modulating role.
Conclusion: Psychological well-being plays a role in predicting the quality of sleep of high school students during COVID-19 quarantine. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to students' psychological well-being in the COVID-19 epidemic and the resulting quarantine.
