Short nap versus short rest: recuperative effects during VDT workMitsuo Hayashi
Department of Behavioral Sciences, Faculty of Integrated Arts and Sciences, Hiroshima University, Higashi Hiroshima, Japan
Ergonomics 47:1549-60. 2004..These results suggest that a short nap would be useful to both fatigue recovery and fatigue prevention during continuous VDT work. The present findings may provide a new work/rest strategy...
The effect of self-awakening from nocturnal sleep on sleep inertiaHiroki Ikeda
Department of Behavioral Sciences, Graduate School of Integrated Arts and Sciences, Hiroshima University, 1 7 1 Kagamiyama, Higashi Hiroshima, Japan
Biol Psychol 83:15-9. 2010..The results of this study suggest that sleep inertia occurs after forced-awakening and that it can be prevented by self-awakening...
The alerting effects of caffeine, bright light and face washing after a short daytime napMitsuo Hayashi
Department of Behavioral Sciences, Faculty of Integrated Arts and Sciences, Hiroshima University, 1 7 1, Kagamiyama, Higashi hiroshima 739 8521, Japan
Clin Neurophysiol 114:2268-78. 2003..The present study examined whether the combination of a short daytime nap with caffeine, bright light and face washing was effective against mid-afternoon sleepiness...
Recuperative power of a short daytime nap with or without stage 2 sleepMitsuo Hayashi
Department of Behavioral Sciences, Faculty of Integrated Arts and Sciences, Hiroshima University, Higashi Hiroshima, Japan
Sleep 28:829-36. 2005..The recuperative effect of a nap of less than 30 minutes has been confirmed. Such naps consist mainly of stages 1 and 2 sleep. The present study examined whether sleep stage 1 or 2 contributed to the recuperative effect of a short nap...
Circasemidian 12 h cycle of slow wave sleep under constant darknessMitsuo Hayashi
Department of Behavioral Sciences, Faculty of Integrated Arts and Sciences, Hiroshima University, 1 7 1, Kagamiyama, Higashi Hiroshima, Japan
Clin Neurophysiol 113:1505-16. 2002..New York, NY: Raven Press, 1989. p. 71-98) that afternoon sleep propensity might reflect the circasemidian 12h cycle of slow wave sleep (SWS)...
The effects of self-awakening on heart rate activity in a short afternoon napKosuke Kaida
Behavioral Sciences, Faculty of Integrated Arts and Sciences, Hiroshima University, Kagamiyama, 1-7-1, Higashi Hiroshima, Japan
Clin Neurophysiol 114:1896-901. 2003..CONCLUSIONS: The results of this experiment suggest that self-awakening prepares autonomic activation that facilitates a more smooth transition from sleep to awakening, and reduces sleepiness after naps...
Effects of self-awakening on sleep structure of a daytime short nap and on subsequent arousal levelsKosuke Kaida
Department of Behavioral Sciences, Faculty of Integrated Arts and Sciences, Hiroshima University, Kagamiyama, Japan
Percept Mot Skills 97:1073-84. 2003..Given this deeper sleep, severe sleep inertia occurred after the forced-awakening condition. In conclusion, it appeared a short nap with self-awakening was more effective in reducing a post-lunch dip than one with forced-awakening...
Volitional lifestyle in healthy elderly: its relevance to rest-activity cycle, nocturnal sleep, and daytime nappingAi Shirota
Hiroshima University, Japan
Percept Mot Skills 95:101-8. 2002..These results suggest that high volitional lifestyle may be related to better rest-activity cycle in the healthy elderly...
Preparation for awakening: self-awakening vs. forced awakening preparatory hangs in the pre-awakening periodMitsuo Hayashi
Department of Behavioral Sciences, Graduate School of Integrated Arts and Sciences, Hiroshima University, Higashi Hiroshima City 739 5821, Japan
Int Rev Neurobiol 93:109-27. 2010..Many factors are involved in the successful SA, such as psychological stress, motivation, personality trait, ambient environment, circadian and homeostatic process, and time perception...
Examination of the first-night effect during the sleep-onset periodMasako Tamaki
Graduate School of Biosphere Sciences, Hiroshima University, Higashi-Hiroshima, Japan
Sleep 28:195-202. 2005..This is the first study to demonstrate the detail of the first-night effect during the sleep-onset period...
Nocturnal heart rate and volitional lifestyle in the elderlyAi Shirota
Department of Behavioural Sciences, Faculty of Integrated Arts and Sciences, Hiroshima University, Higashi-Hiroshima, Japan
Psychiatry Clin Neurosci 56:261-2. 2002..These findings suggest that a volitional lifestyle of the elderly has a beneficial effect on autonomic activity during sleep...
[The effects of self-awakening on daytime sleepiness]Hiroki Ikeda
Department of Behavioral Sciences, Graduate School of Integrated Arts and Sciences, Hiroshima University, Kagamiyama, Higashi hiroshima 739 8521, Japan
Shinrigaku Kenkyu 83:1-9. 2012..In comparison with forced-awakening, self-awakening resulted in an improvement in subjective fatigue; however, sleepiness did not deteriorate...
Effects of hypnagogic imagery on the event-related potential to external tone stimuliNanae Michida
Department of Behavioral Sciences, Faculty of Integrated Arts and Sciences, Hiroshima University, Higashi-Hiroshima, Japan
Sleep 28:813-8. 2005..It is possible that the processing of hypnagogic imagery interferes with the processing of external stimuli, lowering the sensitivity to external stimuli...
Comparison of sleep/wake habits of university students with or without a habit of self-awakeningNoriko Matsuura
Department of Behavioral Sciences, Faculty of Integrated Arts and Sciences, Hiroshima University, Higashi-Hiroshima, Japan
Psychiatry Clin Neurosci 56:223-4. 2002..7%), self-awakening students went to bed and woke up approximately 30 min earlier, felt better when they woke up in the morning, and dozed off less in the daytime. Moreover, self-awakening students showed a higher morningness score...
Self-awakening prevents acute rise in blood pressure and heart rate at the time of awakening in elderly peopleKosuke Kaida
National Institute of Industrial Health, Kawasaki, Japan
Ind Health 43:179-85. 2005..These results suggest that self-awakening facilitates a more smooth transition from sleep to wakefulness via autonomic activation before the time of self-awakening...
