Systematic Interindividual Differences in Neurobehavioral Impairment from Sleep Loss: Evidence of Trait-Like Differential Vulnerability

Hans P. A. Van Dongen, Maurice D. Baynard, Greg Maislin, David F. Dinges·2004·Sleep

Abstract

Objectives To investigate interindividual differences in neurobehavioral deficits during sleep deprivation, and to establish to what extent the neurobehavioral responses to sleep loss are a function of sleep history versus trait-like differential vulnerability. Design Individuals were exposed to sleep deprivation on 3 separate occasions in order to determine the stability of interindividual differences in neurobehavioral impairment. Setting The sleep-deprivation experiments were conducted under standardized laboratory conditions with continuous monitoring of wakefulness. Each subject underwent a laboratory-adaptation session before entering the sleep-deprivation phase of the study. Participants A total of 21 healthy adults (aged 21-38 years) completed the experiment. Interventions Subjects came to the laboratory 3 times at intervals of at least 2 weeks. During each laboratory session, they underwent neurobehavioral testing every 2 hours during 36 hours of total sleep deprivation, which was preceded by baseline sleep and followed by recovery sleep. In the week prior to each sleep-deprivation session and on the baseline night in the laboratory, subjects were required to either restrict their sleep to 6 hours per day (prior sleep restriction condition) or to extend their time in bed to 12 hours per day (prior sleep extension condition), so as to experimentally manipulate sleep history (in randomized counterbalanced order). Results There was strong evidence that interindividual d…

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
