Abstract in brief

  • The study found that listening to relaxing classical music significantly improved sleep quality and reduced depressive symptoms in young students with sleep issues, compared to listening to audiobooks or no intervention.
  • The research used a controlled experimental design with three groups, measuring sleep quality weekly over three weeks, and showed that music had a positive effect while audiobooks and no intervention did not.
  • The results suggest that relaxing classical music is a safe, affordable, and easy method that nurses could use to help treat insomnia in students.]
