Abstract: When people are deprived of sleep their performance in various tasks is impaired. But the degree of impairment depends on the nature of the test — for example, the effects of sleep deprivation are far more likely to be felt if the test is boring. Assessment of performance has mainly been subjective, but one group has now examined the effects of sleep deprivation using brain-imaging techniques.
