Excessive daytime sleepiness, Sleep quality, Physical activity, COVID-19Abstract
To determine the association between sleep quality (SQ), excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) and physical activity (PA) in amateur street runners during the COVID-19 pandemic. Eighty-six volunteers were evaluated, and the analyzed variables were: SQ (By Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index), EDS (By Epworth Sleepiness Scale), and PA (By the Google Fit® app). The data was collected remotely, via email, using Google Forms. Pearson correlation test or Spearman correlation test was used for data correlation. Simple linear regression analysis was performed between variables that showed correlation. P values < 0.05 were considered significant. There was a correlation between EDS and step count [r (p) = 0.219 (0.042)], and only an association between PA and EDS was observed. Based on the results, an association was found between EDS and PA. However, no association was found between SQ and PA.Downloads
