Examinar las asociaciones entre la mala calidad del sueño y las características sociodemográficas, la higiene del sueño, la privación del sueño y la salud mental en estudiantes de psicología de una universidad brasileña. Este es un studio cuantitativo descriptivo transversal con una muestra por conveniencia de 130 estudiantes de psicología (73,8% mujeres, M=21, DE=2,6). Los participantes completaron medidas sobre características sociodemográficas, calidad, privación y higiene del sueño, conductas de salud, autoeficacia y estrés. Análisis de regresión múltiple mediante la prueba chi-cuadrado de Wald demonstró que sexo masculino (p<0,01), edad avanzada (p<0,05), estrés más elevado (p<0,001) y no fumar (p<0,05) estaban asociados com peor calidad del sueño. Por el contrario, más horas de trabajo semanales(p<0,01), mejor higiene del sueño (p<0,05) y mayor autoeficacia (p<0,05) estaban asociados com mejor calidad del sueño. Estos hallazgos sugieren la importancia de intervenciones dirigidas a mejorar la higiene y hábitos de sueño saludables, la gestión del estrés y la autoeficácia em estudiantes. Resultados reafirman la relevancia de los factores sociales, psicológicos y conductuales para comprender la calidad del sueño.
