Both total sleep time and longest undisturbed sleep are substantially lower than the averages for Americans, even for those with sleep disorders.Ī three-week program that increased participants’ sleep time by 27 minutes per night did nothing to improve their productivity, cognition, psychological well-being, or patience. The frequent interruptions meant that their longest undisturbed sleep lasted only 55 minutes on the average night. It’s not that they don’t spend enough time trying to sleep, but that the quality of the sleep they are getting is surprisingly poor.Īlthough participants in the study averaged eight hours in bed, they actually slept only 5.6 hours. Poor urban residents of developing nations sleep relatively little, and a new study from India suggests why. Productivity of workers in Chennai, India benefited less from increased sleep time at home, where sleeping conditions were poor, than from high-quality naps at their workplace.
