It  prevailed  during the Covid-19 pandemic, but the effects of attending videoconferences  with  active  participation  on  psychological  functioning  have  not  yet  been  studied  in  detail.  This  article  aimed  to  evaluate  the  relationship  between  videoconferencing  and  sleep  quality  –  one  of  the  crucial  mechanisms  promoting  physical  and  mental  well-being.  Additionally,  we were interested in the potential mediating role of videoconferencing fatigue in this relationship. The survey took place during the Covid-19 epidemic (in Spring 2021). Our results show a negative relationship between  videoconferencing/screen  device  use  and  sleep  quality  and  that  this  relationship  is  mediated  by  videoconferencing  fatigue.  Results  of  the further analysis revealed that perceived study suitability plays a significant  role  in  determining  to  what  extent  the  duration  of  videoconferences  relates  to  feelings  of  videoconferencing  fatigue.  Our  findings  aid  in  understanding  the  relationships  between  videoconferencing,  Zoom  fatigue,  and  sleep  better.  They  may  be  helpful  in  optimising  remote learning today, as they remain frequently used in higher education worldwide.</dc:description><dc:date>2026</dc:date><dc:date>2026-04-15 07:34:20</dc:date><dc:type>Članek v reviji</dc:type><dc:identifier>181736</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>UDK: 378</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>ISSN pri članku: 2232-2647</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>DOI: 10.26529/cepsj.1697</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>COBISS_ID: 198400003</dc:identifier><dc:language>sl</dc:language></metadata>
