Abstract
Purpose: This study aims to compare the sleep behaviors of young adults with and without exercise addiction.
Setting:
Participants: Volunteers aged 18 to 30 years. The case group consisted of young adults who had exercise addiction (n=280), and the control group consisted of young adults who had no exercise addiction (n=454).
Methods: Exercise Addiction (normal, low-risk, risk, addicted, highly addicted), Sleep Hygiene (good, poor). Data collection was conducted via Google Forms and in-person from September 12th, 2022, to February 28th, 2023. Participants were screened with the exercise addiction scale and were divided into case and control groups according to the feedback results. Participants were reached through remote online participation in community-based sampling. It was designed as a web-based prospective case-control study.
Result: The mean age of the participants was 21.15±2.8. It has been determined that the rate of men was 61.5%, and 51.4% of the participants were engaged in team-based or individual exercise. There was no statistically significant difference between gender and the total EAS and SHI scores (p>.05). The EAS and SHI total scores of the participants having and not having sports branches showed a statistically significant difference (p<.05). The mean of the total EAS score of the participants who had sport branches (53.35±12.2) was statistically higher than the score of the participants who hadn't (39.50±12.8).
Conclusion: There was a statistically difference positive but low-level relationship between sleep hygiene and exercise addictions in the case group.
