contents In this study we analyzed average sleep durations across 61 countries to examine the impact of Daylight Saving Time (DST) practices. Key metrics influencing sleep were identified, and statistical correlation analysis was applied to explore relationships among these factors. Countries were grouped based on DST observance, and visualizations compared sleep patterns between DST and non-DST regions. Results show that, on average, countries observing DST tend to report longer sleep durations than those that do not. A more detailed pattern emerged when accounting for latitude: at lower latitudes, DST-observing countries reported shorter sleep durations compared to non-DST countries, while at higher latitudes, DST-observing countries reported longer average sleep durations. These findings suggest that the influence of DST on sleep may be moderated by geographical location.
