The Cumulative Cost of Additional Wakefulness: Dose-Response Effects on Neurobehavioral Functions and Sleep Physiology From Chronic Sleep Restriction and Total Sleep Deprivation
TL;DR: It appears that even relatively moderate sleep restriction can seriously impair waking neurobehavioral functions in healthy adults, and sleep debt is perhaps best understood as resulting in additional wakefulness that has a neurobiological "cost" which accumulates over time.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cumulative sleepiness, mood disturbance, and psychomotor vigilance performance decrements during a week of sleep restricted to 4-5 hours per night
David F. Dinges,Frances M. Pack,Katherine M Williams,Kelly A. Gillen,John W. Powell,Geoffrey E. Ott,Caitlin Aptowicz,Allan I. Pack +7 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that cumulative nocturnal sleep debt had a dynamic and escalating analog in cumulative daytime sleepiness and that asymptotic or steady-state sleepiness was not achieved in response to sleep restriction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neurocognitive Consequences of Sleep Deprivation
TL;DR: Cognitive deficits believed to be a function of the severity of clinical sleep disturbance may be a product of genetic alleles associated with differential cognitive vulnerability to sleep loss.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microcomputer analyses of performance on a portable, simple visual RT task during sustained operations
David F. Dinges,John W. Powell +1 more
TL;DR: A microcomputer software system is developed that inputs, edits, transforms, analyzes, and reduces the data from the RT portable audiotapes, for each 10-min trial on the task.
Journal ArticleDOI
Behavioral and physiological consequences of sleep restriction
Siobhan Banks,David F. Dinges +1 more
TL;DR: Recent experiments reveal that following days of chronic restriction of sleep duration below 7 hours per night, significant daytime cognitive dysfunction accumulates to levels comparable to that found after severe acute total sleep deprivation.
