I cant think of a single study that hasnt found Americans getting less sleep than they

24、ought to, says Dr David. Even people who think they are sleeping enough would probably be better off with more rest. The beginning of our sleep-deficit crisis can be traced to the invention of the light bulb a century ago. From diary entries and other personal accounts from the 18th and 19th centuri

25、es, sleep scientists have reached the conclusion that the average person used to sleep about 9.5 hours a night. The best sleep habits once were forced on us, when we had nothing to do in the evening down on the farm, and it was dark. By the 1950s and 1960s, that sleep schedule had been reduced drama

To determine the consequences of sleep deficit, researchers have put subjects through a set of psychological and performance tests requiring them, for instance, to add columns of numbers or recall a passage r

29、ead to them only minutes earlier. Weve found that if youre in sleep deficit, performance suffers, says Dr David. Short-term memory is weakened, as are abilities to make decisions and to concentrate. People in the 18th and 19th centuries used to sleep about 9.5 hours a night because they had _.Ano dr
