Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the effects of sleep deprivation and study habits during online distance learning (ODL) among students. The objective of this study is to evaluate the relationship between sleep deprivation and study habits with academic performance among students during ODL. A cross-sectional survey is used through an online platform. The questionnaire was distributed to 191 students in Medical Imaging course. The data being analyzed using SPSS software version 26. Most students had poor sleep (n=130, 68.1%) and poor study habits (n=136, 71.2%). There is no significant correlation between sleep deprivation (X²=0.31, df=2, p=0.855) and study habits (X2=1.26, df=2, p=0.533) on student's academic performance.
