Sleep and Psychosocial Risk Factors Associated with Social Jet Lag and Sleep Duration Among Colombian University Students.

ABSTRACT: Undergraduate students and healthcare professionals often experience irregular sleep patterns, social jet lag (SJL), and rotating shifts that affect their performance. This study examined the association between SJL, sleep duration, and psychosocial factors among 1409 Colombian undergraduate students (mean age 24.4 ± 6.7 years) using data from the Ultra-Short Version of the Munich ChronoType Questionnaire collected between June and September 2023.
