TL;DR: The Primary Insomnia-group overestimated Sleep Onset Latency and this overestimation was correlated with elevated EEG activity, and the strong association found between K-alpha (K-complex within one second followed by 8-12 Hz EEG activity) in Stage2 sleep and a lower parasympathetic Autonomic Nervous System dominance (less high frequency HR) in Slow-wave sleep, further assumes a state of hyperarousal continuing through sleep in Primary Ins insomnia.
