Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between sleep patterns and behavioral problems in adolescents, aiming to elucidate how variations in sleep quality and duration impact behavioral outcomes during this critical developmental period. Adolescents often experience irregular sleep schedules and poor sleep quality, which may contribute to or exacerbate behavioral issues such as mood disorders, attention deficits, and conduct problems. By reviewing recent empirical research and theoretical models, this study explores how disruptions in sleep can influence cognitive and emotional regulation, social interactions, and overall mental health in adolescents. The findings underscore the importance of addressing sleep disturbances in the context of behavioral interventions and offer insights into potential strategies for improving sleep health to mitigate associated behavioral problems. This research highlights the need for continued investigation into sleep-behavior relationships and emphasizes the role of sleep management in promoting adolescent well-being
