Abstract
ACROSS A TYPICAL WAKING DAY, PERFORMANCE AND ALERTNESS ARE QUITE STABLE IN WELL-RESTED ADULTS.1 NEUROBEHAVIORAL PERFORMANCE has been shown to be influenced by both sleep-wake homeostatic (duration of prior wakefulness) and circadian (phase of the endogenous biological clock) influences. Achievement of stable performance and alertness across a normal ∼16-h waking day is hypothesized to result from the wake-dependent decline in alertness and...
