Dostatečně dlouhý a kvalitní spánek je zásadní pro udržení dlouhého zdraví, schopnost učit se novým věcem a předcházení civilizačních onemocnění. Nadměrná stresová zátěž a mnoho pracovních a studijních povinností může vést k snížení množství potřebného spánku. V rámci našeho šetření jsme se rozhodli zmapovat délku spánku u studentů Univerzity obrany a zhodnotit jejich spánkové zvyklosti vzhledem k tomu, že mimo své studijní povinnosti jsou také zatížení vojenskými povinnostmi, a tato zátěž se může projevovat nevhodnými spánkovými zvyklostmi. Pro náš výzkum byly stanoveny tři otázky:
1) Zjistit, jak dlouho studenti Univerzity obrany spí v pracovních a nepracovních dnech a zda se tato průměrná délka mezi sebou liší.
2) Zda existují rozdíly mezi průměrnou délkou spánku mezi ženami a muži na Univerzitě obrany.
3) Zda studenti spí tak dlouho, jak uvádějí, že potřebují. Data byla následně zhodnocena.

Sufficiently long and quality sleep is essential for maintaining long-term health, the ability to learn new things and prevent of civilization diseases. Excessive stress and many work and study responsibilities can lead to the reduction of sleep needed. Within our investigation, we decided to chart the length of sleep at the students of the University of Defense and asses their sleep habits considering, besides their study duties, also the loading by military duties and this load may lead to inappropriate sleep habits. Three questions were asked for our research:1) To Find out how long the University of Defense students sleep on working and non-working days and whether this average length differs.2) If there are differences between the average women´s and men´s length of sleep at the University of Defense.3) Whether the students sleep as long as they say they need to. The following data were subsequently evaluated.
