15 women and 3 men enrolled in a first-year undergraduate psychology course participated in a study concerned with evaluating the home use of a behavioral response monitor of sleep/wakefulness. The subjects, representing a range of fairly poor to good sleepers, used the device for three consecutive nights in their own homes. The 1967 Monroe Questionnaire was used to differentiate "good" sleepers from "poorer" sleepers. The behavioral response system indicated that subjects could adequately report how long they slept but consistently underestimated their number of arousals and could not reliably specify sleep-onset latency. The behavioral response measure was an effective and economical means of obtaining in-home objective sleep data and holds potential for clinical evaluation of disorders of initiating and maintaining sleep.
15名女性和3名男性参加了一门本科一年级心理学课程,他们参与了一项关于评估睡眠/觉醒行为反应监测仪家庭使用情况的研究。这些受试者代表了从睡眠相当差到良好的不同范围,他们在自己家中连续三个晚上使用该设备。使用1967年的门罗问卷来区分“良好”睡眠者和“较差”睡眠者。行为反应系统表明,受试者能够充分报告他们的睡眠时间,但一直低估了他们的觉醒次数,并且无法可靠地确定入睡潜伏期。行为反应测量是获取家庭客观睡眠数据的一种有效且经济的方法,并且在启动和维持睡眠障碍的临床评估方面具有潜力。
