Using correlational research design, a sample of 300 male and female university students (F= 180; M=120) was approached through purposive sampling strategy. Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS-20), Mobile Phone Addiction Scale- Short Version and Sleep Quality Scale were used for the assessment. The statistical software SPSS was used for data analysis on the dataset collected for the study. Reliability analysis, Correlational analysis, Regression analysis, and Independent t-test was done. The results showed that alexithymia and mobile phone addiction were positively correlated with the quality of sleep in the sample. Smartphone addiction and alexithymia emerged as significant positive predictor quality of sleep among university students. However, females have reported high alexithymia and have reduced quality of sleep than males while gender differences are not significant in terms of mobile phone addiction.
