    This study explores the relationship between sleep quality, understood as a construct that encompasses both quantitative (duration and continuity of sleep) and qualitative (perception of rest and well-being) aspects, and impulsivity, defined as the tendency to act without prior reflection, which can lead to negative consequences in decision making and emotional control. The findings revealed that a large majority of participants (78.5%) experience poor sleep quality, associated with factors such as academic stress, irregular rest habits and high workloads. While in the impulsivity variable, 21.5% of the students showed significant differences were observed, with similar scores between men and women. For this research, the Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index ( PSQI) and the Barratt Impulsivity Scale (BIS-11) were used, assessing different dimensions of sleep and types of impulsivity, such as motor and unplanned. The results suggest that, although poor sleep quality is common in this population, its direct relationship with impulsivity could depend on individual and contextual factors, beyond gender.
