Abstract:
AbstractObjectives: Although chronic sleep loss is highly common among teens, few objective sleep studies have examined its effects on cognitive performance, and specifically on information processing speed (IPS), a measure of cognitive proficiency.

Following each sleep period, cognitive performance was assessed, at a fixed morning time, using a computerized neuropsyc
