abstract="This study aimed to explore the association between sleep quality and its components and both dimensions of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in a sample of young  adults. The sample comprised 337 participants with a mean age of 19.6 y (SD = 2.22). Sleep quality and HRQoL were measured through the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and  the SF-12, respectively. Regression analyses were used to investigate the  association between sleep quality and HRQoL. Our results confirm the significant  association between sleep quality and both physical (p = 0.015; β = -0.138; R(2) =  0.07) and mental (p < 0.001; β = -0.348; R(2) = 0.22) HRQoL in the adjusted models. However, our results also highlight the differential association between sleep  quality and mental and physical HRQoL. Whereas all the sleep quality components  (except sleep latency; p = 0.349) were significantly associated with mental HRQoL (p  < 0.05), just two subscales (subjective sleep quality; p = 0.021; β = -0.143 and  sleep disturbances p = 0.002; β = -0.165) showed a significant association. This  study showed that there is a stronger association between sleep quality and mental  health than sleep quality and physical health in young adults.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
