OBJECTIVE This study aimed to examine the relationship between digital addiction, academic performance, and sleep disturbance among nursing students. METHODS The study was a correlational and cross-sectional design. Four hundred twenty-nine nursing students were enrolled in this study. RESULTS There was a positive significant relationship between the mean Sleep Disturbance (SD) T-scores and Digital Addiction Scale (DAS) scores (r = 0.203, p < 0.01). Furthermore, a positive correlation was found between the mean SD T-scores and DAS subscale scores (p < 0.01) PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS: This study demonstrated that digital addiction had an influence on sleep disturbance. It is recommended that nursing students be provided with training to inform them about negative effects of digital addiction.
