Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Fully slept first; Sleep deprived second

Participants will be fully slept during the first experimental visit and sleep deprived during the second experimental visit

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Sleep deprivation

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Fully slept: Sleep habitual amount (i.e., go to sleep at habitual bedtime and wake up at habitual wake time) Sleep deprived: Reduce sleep by 50% (i.e., go to sleep at habitual bedtime and wake up early)

Sleep deprived first; Fully slept second

Participants will be sleep deprived during the first experimental visit and fully slept during the second experimental visit

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Sleep deprivation

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Fully slept: Sleep habitual amount (i.e., go to sleep at habitual bedtime and wake up at habitual wake time) Sleep deprived: Reduce sleep by 50% (i.e., go to sleep at habitual bedtime and wake up early)
