Procrastination and risky health behaviors: a possible way to nurture health promotion among young adults in Italy

he dataset was used in a cross-sectional study aimed at examining the relationship between EI and sleep quality among undergraduate university students in Southern Italy. This study took place between the 13th and 28th of February 2023 in a representative sample of Italian university students of one public university in the Calabria Region. The information is collected through an online questionnaire that is filled in by respondents. The online survey was sent via institutional email. An anonymous and structured questionnaire was used, comprising four sections.
The survey comprised five sections. Four questions were included in the questionnaire's initial part (1) to examine social and demographic variables. The Pure Procrastination Scale (PPS) was used in the second segment (2) to assess levels of procrastination. In the survey’s third component (3), which examined tobacco use, participants were asked if they had ever smoked at least 100 cigarettes and, if so, how often on average they did it (daily, sometimes, or not at all). Using the classification provided by the Centre for Disease Control and Prevention, people were categorized as non-smokers, former smokers, occasional smokers, or daily smokers 12. The Fagerström Test for Nicotine Dependence (FTND) was administered to everyone who had been classified as current smokers (daily and occasional smokers). The fourth section (4) examined unhealthy alcohol intake, using the screening tool known as the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Tool (AUDIT). In the last section (5) the item "How many days a week do you eat breakfast?" was utilized as a proxy measure of unhealthy dietary patterns. The response options varied from 0 to 7 days a week, and those who skipped breakfast more than three times per week were defined as breakfast skippers.

本数据集应用于一项横断面研究，旨在探究意大利南部本科大学生的情绪智力（Emotional Intelligence, EI）与睡眠质量之间的关联。该项研究于2023年2月13日至28日开展，研究样本为卡拉布里亚大区某公立大学的意大利大学生代表性样本。研究数据通过受访者填写的在线问卷收集，问卷通过机构邮箱发放，采用匿名结构化设计，包含五个部分。
问卷第一部分包含4道题目，用于采集社会人口学相关变量。第二部分采用单纯拖延量表（Pure Procrastination Scale, PPS）评估受访者的拖延程度。第三部分针对烟草使用情况展开调查，询问参与者是否曾累计吸烟至少100支，若为是，则进一步了解其平均吸烟频率（每日、偶尔或从不）。参照美国疾病控制与预防中心（Centers for Disease Control and Prevention）的分类标准，将受访者划分为非吸烟者、既往吸烟者、偶尔吸烟者及每日吸烟者。针对当前吸烟者（每日吸烟者与偶尔吸烟者），均实施弗若斯特曼尼古丁依赖测试（Fagerström Test for Nicotine Dependence, FTND）。第四部分采用酒精使用障碍筛查量表（Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Tool, AUDIT）作为筛查工具，调研受访者的不健康饮酒行为。第五部分以“你每周有几天吃早餐？”这一题目作为不健康饮食模式的替代指标，作答选项覆盖每周0至7天，其中每周跳过早餐超过3次的受访者被定义为不吃早餐人群。
