Abstract

Objectives: Laboratory studies have established the beneficial effects of daytime naps taken at experimenter-set times. However, this effect may be underestimated particularly if participants are not sleepy at this time. The present study compared the benefits of a 10-min nap taken at a self-selected and an experimenter-set time.
