We conducted a cross-sectional study to assess theprevalence of sleep quality and its associated factors among adolescents ofhigher secondary school.514 adolescents from different schools were selectedby the probability proportionate to size (PPS) method. The Pittsburgh SleepQualityIndex(PSQI)wasusedto assessthesleepqualityamongadolescents.Frequency distribution and percentage were identified as descriptive analysiswhereaschisquaretestwasdone.Variablesthatwerefoundstatisticallysignificant (P < 0:05) were further analyzed using the logistic regression model.The prevalence of sleep quality in this study was 39.1%. In an analysis, religions, place of residence, satisfaction with academic performance, relationship with friends or classmates, more use of internet per day, and use of internet before falling asleep were found to be statistically significant with sleep quality.
