“Waking sleepwalkers can be dangerous to the sleepwalker” PsychBusters Chapter 5

Waking sleepwalkers Commonly heard idea that waking sleepwalkers might: –Give the sleep walker a heart attack –Physically attack the person waking them First, introduce the idea

What are we talking about Sleepwalking –People in a state of movement out of bed during nighttime sleep hours –Do have their eyes open –Are usually in 3rd or 4th stages of non REM or slow- wave sleep Danger –Causing a heart attack –Deep psychological problems! i.e.. startling the heck out of them Next, define terms!

Sources Wikipedia Cleveland Clinic.org Dmt123.com - a poor exampleDmt123.com Peer reviewed examples: –Sleepwalking and other ambulatory behaviours during sleep.G. Plazzi; R. Vetrugno; F. Provini; P. Montagna; Neurological Sciences; Dec 2005; 26(Suppl3); p. s193-s198 –Sleepwalking violence: A sleep disorder, a legal dilemma, and a psychological challenge.Rosalind Cartwright; American Journal of Psychiatry; Jul 2004; 161(7); p Where did you find your info? Perhaps start by googling “waking sleepwalker”

Findings Most danger to sleepwalkers is themselves - tripping, falling, etc In stage 3 & 4, people are confused when awakened. Maybe startled, but not scared enough for a heart attack They may hit you out of confusion, but are not violent (beyond normal level) No evidence that heart attacks occur Some people try to use sleep walking as an excuse for violent behavior, but sleep researchers can determine if this might be the case What did you find?
