Research has shown that <\/span>people who work with <\/span>children<\/span> have <\/span>high levels<\/span> of stress which leads to burnout and retention (Forrester, 2017). However, <\/span>not much is currently known about the experience of <\/span>people who <\/span>work<\/span> in a highly stressed environment and are physically <\/span>inactive yet<\/span> have <\/span>g<\/span>ood quality<\/span> <\/span>of sleep. <\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

      Both quantitative and qualitative research methods will be adopted in this study. The quantitative method includes questionnaires for general demographic such as the participants\u2019 age, gender, marital status, what their profession is and their income<\/span>,<\/span> t<\/span>hen followed by<\/span> The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index<\/span> <\/span>(<\/span>PSQI<\/span>)<\/span>, <\/span>Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (<\/span>DASS<\/span>)<\/span> and <\/span>International Physical Activity Questionnaire (<\/span>IPAQ<\/span><\/span>)<\/span><\/span><\/span>. <\/span>Approximately<\/span> 35 i<\/span>ndividu<\/span>als will be surveyed. <\/span>Based on <\/span>the<\/span> reported<\/span> levels of <\/span>physical activity, stress level and sleep quality, <\/span>4-5 <\/span>participants will be invited to <\/span>an <\/span>in-depth <\/span>individual <\/span>interviews<\/span> (qualitative investigation) <\/span>which allows me to gain insights and different perspectives<\/span>. <\/span> <\/span>Purposive sampling will be used. <\/span><\/span>I plan to interview different <\/span>educational professionals<\/span> such as teachers, teaching assistants and<\/span> school<\/span> social workers in Hong Kong, but not limited to these groups. <\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

      Write a literature review on concepts of sleep quality, physical activity and stress (in correlation to each other) and their impacts if ther is too much stress, or when there is not enough physical activity, or when the sleeping quality is bad. The research is based on professionals working with children i.e. teachers, social workers and teaching assistants. My findings are coherent to my assumptions. Professionals working with children work in highly stressed environments, even though they are physically inactive, they still have good quality of sleep. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
