Social jetlag and global sleep quality predict worse grades in first-year STEM students.
… that included measures of sleep quality, social jetlag, chronotype, daytime sleepiness, mental health, and fluid intelligence. Sleep quality and social jetlag remained predictive of grade point average (GPA) after controlling for all variables (ps<.05). After excluding participants with very low …

Evaluating sleep and circadian rhythm disturbances and symptoms of impulsivity and inattention: Implications for adult attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder
… novel evidence which suggests that ‘social jetlag’ – an index of circadian misalignment arising from discordance between endogenous circadian timing and the timing of the social clock – is a consistent predictor of poorer ADHD-like symptom outcomes. Furthermore, objective assessment of the …

FROM CLOCKS TO EXERCISE, FROM METABOLISM TO PERFORMANCE: A CHRONOPHYSIOLOGICAL APPROACH
… role of sleep quality, chronotype, and social jetlag in shaping endurance, strength, and balance. The final section of this introduction delves into molecular aspects, investigating the influence of temperature regulation, metabolism, and clock genes in determining exercise physiology. The …

A computational study of sleep and the hemispheres of the brain
… activity. Multiple different perspectives on jetlag are presented, exploring the impact of circadian rhythm changes. Unihemispheric sleep, the unusual form of sleep exhibited by some ocean creatures and species of birds, is observed, as well as asymmetric sleep, which occurs in human subjects …

The roles of vasoactive intestinal polypeptide in circadian entrainment of suprachiasmatic nucleus
In mammalian hypothalamus, the suprachiasmatic nucleus: SCN) generates daily behavioral and physiological rhythms as a circadian pacemaker. The 20,000 SCN neurons synchronize to each other and to the ambient cues to generate coherent daily rhythms. Vasoactive intestinal polypeptide: VIP), a …
