Abstract

Objective To explore the associations among resilience, insomnia, and negative emotional symptoms in college students, so as to provide a basis for implementing targeted measures to improve insomnia symptoms and the mental health of this population. Methods From April to May 2022, a cluster sampling method was employed to select 3 221 freshmen from Union University of Huainan in Anhui Province. Questionnaires were administered to investigate general demographic characteristics, insomnia, resilience, and depressive symptoms. Multivariate Logistic regression models were constructed to analyze the relationships among tinsomnia, resilience, and depressive symptoms of college students. Results The prevalence rates of depressive symptoms, anxiety symptoms, and stress-related symptoms were 17.5%, 22.7%, and 7.8%, respectively. After adjusting for confounding factors, insomnia was significantly associated with depressive symptoms [OR(95%CI)=5.09(4.05-6.41)], anxiety symptoms [OR(95%CI)=4.89(3.91-6.12)] and stress-related symptoms [OR(95%CI)=6.39(4.82-8.48)](P < 0.05). Medium and low levels of resilience were significantly associated with depressive symptoms [OR(95%CI)=2.86(2.06-3.97),8.77(6.44-11.93)], anxiety symptoms [OR(95%CI)=3.21(2.43-4.23),7.55(5.79-9.84)] and stress-associated symptoms [OR(95%CI)=2.48(1.53-4.01),7.17(4.61-11.16)](P < 0.05). The interaction between insomnia and Psychological resilience had interaction on college students' negative emotional symptoms.Comparable to the results regarding insomnia, decreased resilience corresponded to a higher detection rate of negative emotions in freshman students (P < 0.05). Conclusion Insomnia and resilience were correlated with negative emotions in college students. Emphasis should be placed on sleep health education and resilience in order to improve the negative emotions in college students.
