About this trial
Observational study:
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the association between slow wave activity before awakening and post-awakening psychomotor vigilance task in time-fixed, 2-hour, simulated night naps in healthy individuals.
The main question aims to answer is:
Is the quantity of slow wave activity immediately before awakening associated with post-awakening psychomotor vigilance task metrics when awakened after 2-hour nap at night?

Nap intervention
BehavioralNap intervention is the protocol that allows the participant to sleep from 11:00 PM to 2:00 AM, then woken up.
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
psychomotor vigilance test (PVT)
To investigate the association between slow wave activity (SWA) as assessed by electroencephalographic power spectral analysis during the last 10 minutes before awakening and a 10-minute psychomotor vigilance test (10-min PVT) immediately after awakening and 30 minutes after awakening in healthy participants on simulated night shifts
