Terri Blackwell,Kristine Yaffe,Sonia Ancoli-Israel,Jennifer L. Schneider,Jane A. Cauley,Teresa A. Hillier,Howard A Fink,Katie L. Stone +7 more
TL;DR: Objectively measured disturbed sleep was consistently related to poorer cognition, whereas total sleep time was not, which may suggest that it is disturbance of sleep rather than quantity that affects cognition.
