Internet addiction was assessed using the Internet Addiction Test, gaming disorder risk using the Internet Gaming Disorder Scale-Short Form, and sleep quality using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Poor sleep quality was defined as PSQI &gt;5. Associations were analyzed using Spearman\u2019s correlation, Kruskal\u2013Wallis test, Chi-square\/Fisher\u2019s exact test, and binary logistic regression.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      At least mild internet addiction was present in 137 (63.1%) students, and moderate-to-high gaming-related risk was present in 114 (52.5%). Poor sleep quality was observed in 156 (71.9%) students. Internet addiction score showed a significant positive correlation with PSQI total score (rho = 0.345,\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt; 0.001) and a significant negative correlation with sleep duration (rho = \u22120.284,\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt; 0.001).
