| Research Abstract |
Questionnaire surveys among shiftworkers revealed that their sleepiness during night shift(SNS) is positively associated with drinking alcoholic beverages before day sleep and nap after day sleep, but inversely associated with abstaining from caffeine before day sleep, having a bath before day sleep, and subjective health status. Based on these results and literature review, a textbook and a sleep diary for sleep education were developed. Two months after the education, the prevalence of some personal efforts to facilitate better sleep increased, while that of insomnia complaints and SNS decreased.
