There were a significant differences of hypersomnia based on ethnicity (F = 5,32; p < 0,01) and knowledge of COVID-19 (F = -2,39; p = 0,02). A significant correlation were found between age with sleep duration (r = -0,19; p = 0,04), daytime dysfunction  (r = -0,24; p = 0,01), sleep quality (r = -0,23, p = 0,02), and hypersomnia (r = -0,28; p < 0,01).
