The analytical technique used was inferential statistical analysis with the Spearman rank test. The results of hypothesis testing showed that, (1) There was a significant positive correlation between physical activity and EI (0.029 < 0.05). (2) There was a significant negative correlation between stress and EI (0.008 <0.05). (3) There was a significant negative correlation between sleep quality and EI (0.001 < 0.05). (4) There was a significant negative correlation between physical activity and stress (0.041 < 0.05). (5) There was a significant positive correlation between stress and sleep quality (0.000 < 0.05). (6) There was no significant negative correlation between physical activity and sleep quality (0.309 > 0.05). This research showed that there was an interrelated correlation between physical activity, stress and sleep quality on EI. However, there was no significant correlation between physical activity and sleep quality. Therefore, it is recommended to maintain the quality of physical activity in order to avoid stress so as to get good sleep quality and maintain EI. © 2023 by authors, all rights reserved.
