Sleep quality components and mental health: Study with a non-clinical population

The relationship between sleep quality and mental health has been previously addressed and resulting data has attested it (Kilicaslan et  al., 2017; João et al., 2016; João et al., 2018; Reddy et al., 2017). Studies have established a strong relationship between sleep disturbances, depression (Kalmback et al., 2014; Plumb et al., 2014; Riemann, 2014), anxiety (Kalmback et al., 2014; Mellman, 2006; Plumb et al., 2014; Roth e t al., 2006) and stress (Almojali et al., 2017; Meerlo et al., 2008). Yet, this evidence is more abundant in clinical populations when compared to populations with no specific clinical complaints.
