Developing a General Method for Analyzing Psychomotor Vigilance Task (PVT) Data: Modeling Sleep Inertia in Children
… these methods to data from studies of measuring sleep inertia in children. We will start by looking at relevant methodological and application specific background. We will then look at basic statistical analysis such as mean, median, and standard error and plot some examples to get a sense of the …

Subjective, behavioural and electrophysiological measurements of the time-course and intensity of sleep inertia after a full night of sleep /
… of impaired alertness and performance known as sleep inertia that occurs upon awakening from a full night of sleep. They report that sleep inertia dissipates in a saturating exponential manner, the exact time course being task dependent, but generally persisting for one to two hours. A number of …

The acute and phase-shifting effects of artificial bright light on human physiology, performance and symptoms of jet-lag
… using intestinal thermistors. The time of the sleep-trough in core temperature occurred approximately 1.75 h later following bright light (L) vs. no light (NL) (p = 0.07). Just prior to the time-trial, Tc was 0.27 ± OA2°C lower in L than NL (p = 0.07). The time trial was completed 1.43 ± 0.63 …

Developing individualized ground testing protocols for use of sleep medications in spaceflight
During spaceflight, sleep time are markedly reduced for astronauts. Sleep medications are used by astronauts during space mission for sleep. Spaceflight is an environment where abrupt alarm awakening is always a possibility and during that time high cognitive function and performance may be needed …
