Abstract

A growing number of studies on anxiety and sleep disorder are becoming a global health concern. The majority of studies were carried on a certain group of people, and a limited number of studies were conducted among the faculty and staff in a public university. Therefore, the study's objectives are to identify the level of anxiety and sleep disorders among academic and non-academic staff and determine the relationship between both levels of disorders. A survey method was applied in this research and involved 102 academic and non-academic staff of a selected public university. The respondents participated in an online survey questionnaire. A series of questions were used to retrieve information from the respondents on their demographic and identify their anxiety and sleep disorder levels. The study results showed a significant relationship between the level of anxiety and the level of sleep disorder at 0.05 level. This points out that public university staff needs intervention and treatment to reduce anxiety in improving their working performance.
