States of Consciousness Chapter 09

Sleep, Dreams, and Body Rhythms Module 20

Introduction Module 20: Sleep, Dreams, and Body Rhythms

Consciousness Awareness of oneself and one’s environment

Body Rhythms Module 20: Sleep, Dreams, and Body Rhythms

Biological Rhythms Periodic physiological fluctuations Can affect physiological functioning Fall into three main categories –Circadian Rhythms –Ultradian Rhythms –Infradian Rhythms

Circadian Rhythms Biological rhythms that occur approximately every 24 hours Example: Sleep-wake cycle

Ultradian Rhythms Biological rhythms that occur more than once each day Example: Stages of sleep throughout the night

Infradian Rhythms Biological rhythms that occur once a month or once a season Example: Women’s menstrual cycle

Sleep and Sleep Deficit Module 20: Sleep, Dreams, and Body Rhythms

Sleep Deprivation Effects Decreases efficiency of immune system functioning Safety and accident issues Contributes to hypertension, impaired concentration, irritability, etc.

Sleep Deprivation (National Transportation Safety Board, 1995)

Why We Sleep Module 20: Sleep, Dreams, and Body Rhythms

Hypothalamus Sleep control center in the brain Monitors changes in light or dark in the environment Changes levels of hormones in the body

Melatonin A hormone that helps regulate daily biological rhythms Linked to the sleep-wake cycle Melatonin level increases during the night and decreases with exposure to morning light

Reasons for Sleep Two primary reasons: –Preservation: keep us protected from the dangers of the night –Restoration: recuperate from the wear and tear of the day

Sleep Stages, REM, and Dreaming: The Stages of Sleep Module 20: Sleep, Dreams, and Body Rhythms

Electroencephalograph (EEG) A machine that amplifies and records waves of electrical activity that sweep across the brain’s surface Electrodes are placed on the person’s scalp to measure the waves Used as a means to measure the stages of sleep

EEG

Stage 1 Sleep Breathing is slowed. Brain waves become irregular. It is easy to wake the person, who will insist they are not asleep. Person will report they have dreamlike sensations, such as falling.

Stage 1

Stages of Sleep

Stage 1

Stage 2 Sleep Brain wave cycle slows. EEG spindles (small brain wave bursts) develop. First time through stage 2 last about 20 minutes.

Stage 2

Stages 3 and 4 Sleep Increase in delta waves (large and slow waves per second) First time through stage 4 is about 30 minutes and is where one gets rejuvenated

Stage 3

Stage 4

Sleep Stages, REM, and Dreaming: REM Sleep Module 20: Sleep, Dreams, and Body Rhythms

REM Sleep Stages considered N-REM (non- REM sleep) Rapid eye movement (REM Sleep) as eyes move quickly back and forth Most dreaming occurs in REM sleep

REM Sleep

Paradoxical Sleep During REM sleep brain wave patterns are similar to when a person is awake Pulse and breathing quickens. REM sleep is sometimes called paradoxical sleep as one’s physiology is close to that of being awake but the brainstem blocks all muscle movement

Typical Night’s Sleep

Stage 4/REM Changes

Sleep Changes through Life

Sleep Stages, REM, and Dreaming: Why Do We Dream? Module 20: Sleep, Dreams, and Body Rhythms

Information-Processing Theory Dreams serve an important memory- related function by sorting and sifting through the day’s experiences Research suggests REM sleep helps memory storage.

Physiological Function Theory Neural activity during REM sleep provides periodic stimulation of the brain.

Activation-Synthesis Theory Dreams are the mind’s attempt to make sense of random neural firings in the brain as one sleeps.

Sleep Disorders and Sleep Problems: Insomnia Module 20: Sleep, Dreams, and Body Rhythms

Insomnia Recurring problems falling asleep or staying asleep Sleeping pills tend to inhibit or suppress REM sleep; worsen the problem Alcohol suppresses REM sleep; also worsens the problem Studies show most people overestimate how long it took them to get to sleep

Sleep Disorders and Sleep Problems: Sleep Apnea Module 20: Sleep, Dreams, and Body Rhythms

Sleep Apnea A sleep disorder characterized by temporary cessations of breathing during sleep and consequent momentary reawakenings. Tend to be loud snorers Continuous Positive Airway Pressure machine

Sleep Disorders and Sleep Problems: Narcolepsy Module 20: Sleep, Dreams, and Body Rhythms

Narcolepsy A sleep disorder characterized by uncontrollable sleep attacks Person goes directly into REM sleep Nervous system getting aroused tends to trigger the sleep attack

Sleep Disorders and Sleep Problems: Other Sleep Problems Module 20: Sleep, Dreams, and Body Rhythms

Somnambulism Formal name for sleepwalking Starts in the deep stages of N-REM sleep Person can walk or talk but remembers nothing of the experience

Night Terrors Sleep disorder characterized by high arousal and appearance of being terrified Happens during stage 4 sleep; mostly children The children seldom remember the event.

Other Sleep Disorders Bruxism – teeth grinding Enuresis – bed wetting Myoclonus – sudden jerk of a body part occurring during stage 1 sleep –Everyone has occasional episodes of myoclonus
