Study of Sleep Quality, Neck Pain, and Depression in Young Adults Aged 18 to 28

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are investigating how sleep quality relates to neck pain and symptoms of depression in young adults aged 18 to 28. This observational study looks at these connections to better understand how poor sleep might affect mental and musculoskeletal health. It highlights the importance of addressing sleep quality to improve overall well-being in this age group. Participants are grouped based on their sleep quality scores using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index PSQI. The groups include those with good sleep quality, impaired sleep quality, and persistent sleep disturbances. Participants complete questionnaires such as the Beck Depression Inventory BDI and Neck Disability Index NDI to assess depression and neck disability alongside sleep quality without any experimental treatment. During the study, participants will complete these assessments once at the baseline. Researchers will analyze their sleep quality, neck disability, and depression severity through these questionnaires. The main outcome is measuring sleep quality via PSQI, while secondary outcomes assess neck disability and depression levels. The study aims to understand these relationships in young adults over the course of participation.
