CHAPTER 1 : INTRODUCTION

1.1 Background Information

1.1.1  Statement of problem
          Since we study here, we found that most of KMPh students did not have enough sleep.  As the consequences, they cannot give fully concentration during the lesson.  Other than that, they also feel stress because they have many assignment to be finished up and caused them to burn the midnight oil.  When we do not get enough sleep, our brain cannot function well.  This will effect our performance in academic.

1.1.2  Objectives
          1) To identify the hours of sleep that students get per night.
          2) To determine whether they show any symptoms of sleep deprivation.
          3) To investigate the effects of sleep deprivation on the students.

1.1.3  Research Questions
          1) How many hours of sleep the students get per night?
          2) Do they show any symptoms of sleep deprivation?
          3) What are the effects of sleep deprivation on them?
