It was found that the average score of sleep quality indicates unsatisfactory sleep quality. It was found that there are significant differences between the groups of subjects with satisfactory and unsatisfactory indicators of the overall score of sleep quality on the scales of neuroticism and depression. In people who are dissatisfied with the quality of sleep, the level of neuroticism is close to high and there is moderate depression. The relationships between sleep quality indicators and psychological factors have been identified, and their features have been analyzed.
