Although NSIs are a multifactorial phenomenon, the relationship between sleep problems and NSIs remains unclear. The aim of the present study was to examine the association between sleep-related problems and NSIs among nursing students.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methodology<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Cross-sectional study of n = 584 nursing students from two Ecuadorian universities. Sociodemographic and academic data as well as information on NSIs in the previous three months were obtained through an online questionnaire. Self-reported insomnia, sleepiness, sleep hygiene practices and emotional well-being were explored using validated questionnaires. The relationship between all variables and the occurrence of NSIs was explored using logistic regression analyses.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Findings<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      In total, 23.6% of the students (n = 138) reported at least one NSI in the previous three months. Those reporting NSIs used hypnotics more frequently (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">p<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt; 0.05), were younger and reported higher levels of insomnia, sleepiness, depression, anxiety and stress and poorer sleep hygiene (all\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">p<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt; 0.01).
