- <p><span>Driven<span> </span>by<span> </span>technological<span> </span>advancements,<span> </span>the<span> </span>widespread<span> </span>use<span> </span>of<span> </span>screens<span> </span>in<span> </span>laptops,<span> </span>phones,<span> </span>and<span> televisions (</span>TVs) has become an essential aspect of daily life, particularly for university students. This study explored the relationship between screen time, sleep quality, and academic performance among Meru University of Science and Technology (MUST) students. The research investigated how prolonged screen<span> </span>exposure<span> </span>affects sleep<span> </span>patterns and<span> </span>academic outcomes,<span> </span>aiming<span> </span>to<span> </span>provide<span> </span>evidence-based insights for educators and policymakers. Data was collected using a mixed methods approach through surveys and interviews to assess screen time habits, sleep quality, and academic performance. Statistical analyses including scatter plots, correlation matrices, and regression models were employed to examine the associations between these variables. Findings revealed minimal<span> </span>correlations between screen time/light<span> </span>brightness and academic<span> </span>performance/sleep time. The R-squared values for the relationships between screen time and sleep time, screen time and academic performance, screen light and academic performance, screen light, and sleep time were notably low, ranging from 0.0006 to 0.0051, with one slightly higher at 0.182%. These findings suggest that other uncontrollable or unmeasured variables might play a more substantial role in these outcomes than the screen-related variables alone.</span></p>
