Objective: To examine the influence of cell phones and sleep quality among college students and the prevalence of sleep texting. Participants: Participants were 372 college students at two mid-size universities in 2013. Methods: A survey was used to ask about cell phone use during sleep and sleep quality. Students were asked about hours of sleep, both on a school night, and over the weekend in addition to location of cell phone. Results: A quarter of the sample (25.6%) reported sleep texting behavior along with poor sleep quality and the cell phone influencing their sleep (p < 0.05). Students that sleep text were more likely to report sleep interruption (p < 0.000), to place their phone in bed with them (p < 0.000), have no memory of texting (72%) or what they texted (25%). Conclusions: Sleep texting and its influence on poor sleep habits is a growing trend in a college student population.
