<p>This research is an analytical observational study with a cross-sectional approach. The sampling technique was purposive sampling of 150 nursing students at a private university in Malang, Indonesia. Respondents filled out a questionnaire about self-identity, a sleep quality questionnaire from the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and social media addiction from Social Media Addiction Scale (SMAS). This was a bivariate analysis which was conducted using the Pearson Product Moment Correlation test.</p>

Methods
This research is an analytical observational study with a cross-sectional approach. The sampling technique was purposive sampling of 150 nursing students at a private university in Malang, Indonesia. Respondents filled out a questionnaire about self-identity, a sleep quality questionnaire from the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and social media addiction from Social Media Addiction Scale (SMAS). This was a bivariate analysis which was conducted using the Pearson Product Moment Correlation test.

The results of this study reported that most nursing students were addicted to social media (76%). As for the parameter of the quality variable, most respondents had poor sleep quality, which were about 106 people (70.3%). The result of the Pearson Product Moment Correlation test obtained a P value of 0.000. The Pearson correlation coefficient was 0.358.

Conclusions
We found that there is an association between social media addiction and sleep quality among nursing students. Furthermore, we might be educating nursing students to manage their time to improve their quality of sleep to avoid any health problems.
