The quantitative methodology and survey design of cross-sectional were applied for the study. We also apply purposive sampling method to collect respondent from young adults in Malaysia, aged between 18 – 26 years old, who were the major group of people that are affected by insomnia. 162 young adults from Malaysia have responded to the study by filling and answering the survey questionnaire. The results have shown that both smartphone addiction and internet gaming disorder have a positive relationship with insomnia.

The current research not only illuminates new perspectives on insomnia among young undergraduates in Malaysia but also furnishes empirical evidence to policymakers for devising evidence-based programs that address Insomnia. |
