ABSTRACT

Insomnia significantly impacts university students’ health and academic performance, making it essential to incorporate their experiences with insomnia into research. This study aims to explore the needs and expectations of university students in coping with insomnia and the implications for theory and practice. The research involved a survey of 110 students, with five participating in semi-structured in-depth interviews. The results revealed that students’ needs and expectations for managing insomnia fall into three categories: online services, integrated university medical services, and socially interactive and shareable service models. The study found that addressing students’ insomnia requires an understanding of these needs and expectations, with a human-centered approach proving effective in identifying and addressing students’ actual requirements. These findings provide a foundation for further discussions on improving the accessibility of insomnia coping strategies for university students.
