Objective: To explore the relationship between sleep quality and mental disorders and its related factors in Pakistani, and to provide a reference for the prevention and intervention of psychological disorders in various populations.
Methods: The random cluster sampling method was used to stratify 15,000 healthy people in all provinces and cities. The Pakistani Sleep Disorder Scale and the Pakistani Mental Illness Prediction Scale were distributed. The data were analyzed by SPSS 18.0 and independent sample t-test, correlation analysis and regression analysis.
Findings: The scores of personality introversion and personality shift factors in urban populations were significantly higher than those in rural populations (p < 0.05 or 0.01). The urban–rural differences in other mental health factors were not significant (p > 0.05). The scores of the single-child mental health factors were significantly lower for non-only children (p < 0.01); the scores of various factors on the mental health of married people were significantly higher than those of unmarried people (p < 0.01). There was a significant positive correlation between sleep quality and mental disorders in Pakistani (p < 0.01, r = 0.339–0.541). Daytime function (SD1), insomnia (SD2), drowsiness of the Pakistani Sleep Disorders Scale. The five factors (SD3), exercise paradoxical sleep (SD4) and non-exercise paradox sleep (SD5) all entered the regression equation of the total score of the Pakistani Mental Illness Prediction Scale (p = 0.005), which could explain the variation of Pakistani mental disorders 38.8%.
Conclusion: There are some differences in sleep quality and mental disorders among different demographics, and sleep quality has a certain predictive effect on mental disorders.
