For data analysis, Mann-Whitney test was used in SPSS-16 software.
The results showed that there was no difference between passive and active soldiers in the scale of the delay in falling asleep (p=0.41) and use of sleep medications (p=0.13), While there was a significant difference in overall score and other sleep quality variables (p<0.05). It was also found that there were significant differences in the quality of life variables between active and inactive soldiers (p<0.05).
