The purpose of this study was to examine relationships between sleep and skipping breakfast, and to obtain the basic data for nutrition education among female high school students. The participants of the analysis were 1,720 females in four senior high schools. We analyzed the relationship between skipping breakfast and sleep. The sleep was evaluated by bedtime, waking time, sleep satisfaction and feeling of awakening. The result of Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that skipping breakfast was related bedtime, waking time, and feeling of awakening. The odds ratios of skipping breakfast were calculated on the basis of the group“before 10 pm or from 10 pm to 11 pm”of bedtime. In the groups with“after 1 am”and“not fixed”, the odds ratios of skipping breakfast were significantly high. The odds ratios of skipping breakfast were calculated on the basis of the group“before 6 am”of waking time. In the group with“7 am to 8 am”, the odds ratios of skipping breakfast were significantly high. The odds ratios of skipping breakfast were calculated on the basis of the group“good”of feeling of awakening. In the group with“not good”, the odds ratios of skipping breakfast were significantly high.
