Operant-conditioning techniques were employed to produce organized behavior during sleep as defined by the electroencephalographic record. Patterned responding was found in so-called "light" and "deeper" electroencephalograph stages as well as in the awake record. Results suggest that the use of the electroencephalographic record as a reliable indicator of the sleep-awakefulness continuum be re-examined.
操作性条件反射技术被用来在睡眠期间产生有组织的行为，这种行为是根据脑电图记录来定义的。在所谓的“浅”和“深”脑电图阶段以及清醒记录中都发现了有模式的反应。研究结果表明，应该重新检查将脑电图记录作为睡眠-觉醒连续体的可靠指标的用法。
