Question: After you have completed the Sleep IQ and the Sleep Deprivation
quizzes. Discuss any questions you have about what you thought you knew
about sleep, or what you think is still true after the quizzes.
Response: Currently I have definitely been sleep deprived.I answered “true” to far too many of the questions in the Sleep Deprivation
Quiz. I believe this is primarily due to trying to get back into waking
early for the school year and I have not adjusted my staying up late
habits. I am definitely going to put some of the information that I have
gathered from these readings to use. I am mostly confused as to number
four on the Sleep IQ quiz: "At you move from early to later adulthood
you need less sleep". I am told this was false, but the graph in the
PowerPoint suggests otherwise. This seems to be a pretty consistent
pattern in humanity; it always seems the people significantly older than
me can sleep less. I was also wondering about number five: "By playing
audiotapes during the night, you can learn while you sleep." Again I am
told this was false but I have tried this before and it seemed to
work... I am just wondering as to the science behind these. I learned a
whole lot so far in our reading that I previously knew absolutely
nothing about. I really enjoy learning about the sleep and dreams, and
also plan on putting what I have learned to use.
