Sleep Quality And Its Relationship With Basic Psychoiogical Need And Mobile Phone Dependence Among Adolescent

Objective:(i)To investigate the correlation between sleep quality,basic psychological needs and mobile phone dependence;(ii)To explore the mechanism how basic psychological needs and mobile phone dependence affect sleep quality.Methods: With the convenient sampling,400 adolescent samples were collected from middle schools and high schools in Anyang of Henan,Changsha and Yue Yang of Hunan province.Each of them were questioned with the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index,the Basic Psychological Needs Scale and the Mobile Phone Addiction Index.We gave the test subjects on site tests by class scale.400 questionnaires were distributed with 388 return and 305 valid.The age range of the test subjects is 11 to 17.All data were processed by statistical software SPSS19.0 and AMOS24.0.Results:(1)By the tests,we found 19.34% of the test subjects have sleep problems.Among these problems were 3 most serious ones:daytime dysfunction,subjective sleep quality and sleep latency.(2)The scores of subjective sleep quality,sleep latency,sleep efficiency,daytime dysfunction and global PSQI were significant and negative correlated with the scores of autonomy,competence,relatedness and global BPNS.The score of sleep duration was significant and negative with the scoresof autonomy,competence and global BPNS.(3)The scores of subjective sleep quality,sleep latency,daytime dysfunction and global PSQI were significant and positive correlated with the scores of inability to control craving,feeling anxious and lost,withdrawal/escape,productivity loss and global MPAI.The score of sleep duration was significant and positive with the scores of inability to control craving,feeling anxious and lost,productivity loss and global MPAI.The score of sleep efficiency was significant and positive correlated with the score of productivity loss.The score of sleep disturbance was significant and positive correlated with the scores of inability to control craving,productivity loss and global MPAI.(4)The scores of autonomy and global BPNS were significant and negative correlated with the scores of inability to control craving,feeling anxious and lost,withdrawal/escape,productivity loss and global MPAI.The score of competence was significant and negative correlated with inability to control craving,withdrawal/escape,productivity loss and global MPAI.(5)Path analysis showed that the mobile phone dependence played a partial mediating effect between basic psychological needs and sleep quality.Conclusion:(1)The adolescents with high satisfaction of basic psychological needs have higher sleep quality,on the contrary,those adolescents who have low psychological needs satisfaction have lower sleep quality.(2)The more an adolescent is addicted to mobile phone theworse his/her sleep quality is.(3)The more one's basic psychological needs are satisfied,the less likely he/she is addicted to mobile phone.(4)Basic psychological needs can both directly act on sleep quality and indirectly through mobile phone dependence.
