I. ABSTRACT
Sleep quality is characterized as a person's satisfaction with their sleep experience which includes aspects such as sleep initiation, sleep maintenance, sleep quantity, and wakefulness. However, when the COVID-19 pandemic started, it significantly affected the sleep quality across different populations stated by Kocevska et al. (2020). This study aimed to distinguish the quality of sleep of grade 12 PM session online students during the CoViD-19 pandemic. The researchers used a quantitative-descriptive research design to describe the quality of sleep of 213 grade 12 PM session online students that were selected with the use of stratified sampling technique and Slovin's formula. The researchers used a modified adapted questionnaire from the study titled "STOP, THAT and One Hundred Other Sleep Scales" from Marcu et al. (2012) in gathering the needed data, with the use of different statistical treatment including frequency and percentage for the demographic profile of the respondents and weighted mean score in analyzing and interpreting the necessary data from the adapted survey questionnaire. Generally, the researchers concluded that the respondents experienced a poor quality of sleep in times of COVID-19 pandemic that resulted in irritation and it leads the researchers to have more awareness on how students will get rid of it. Lastly, some students rarely experienced waking up while sleeping. Once it happens they find it hard to fall asleep again which leads to not getting enough quality of sleep that also affects their concentration on online class. The researchers would like to recommend a seminar for the teachers to guide the students and give awareness focusing on the effects of having a good and bad quality of sleep, and suggesting ways on improving one’s sleeping habit and routine.
