 Recommendations:

Based on the findings and conclusions of the study, the following are recommendations:

1. Make sleep a priority. As hard as it sounds, one of the reasons why students are sleep
deprived is that they make sleep their lowest priority. One can keep track of the small
things that keep them unnecessarily awake more than usual and change or remove
them from the schedule. Making a sleep diary is a way to do this. Another way is to
simply keep track of what keeps you awake.

2. Cutting down on any medication, sweets or on caffeine. Nothing can substitute a good
night’s sleep and the above mentioned can disrupt regular sleep patterns and can result
in sleep cycle that does not conform to one’s schedule.

3. Create a new routine before you go to bed. This is following the concept of classical
conditioning. Here, if you do something at a certain time repeatedly your body will send
a stimulus and it becomes a routine. This applies to what keeps you awake as well
hence creating a routine that can cause you to sleep is advisable as it can also help you
adjust your body clock.

4. Don’t eat, drink, or exercise within a few hours of your bedtime. Don’t leave your
homework for the last minute. Another one can do is to avoid distractions. This is true to
students in particular. Try to finish everything ahead whilst keeping time for bed.

5. Avoid all nighters. When a person forces themselves to work or study even when
sleepy, they succumb to the reduced cognitive and physical effects it brings.
