Brain activity
In this open book essay you are to design a study where you test how minor sleep deprivation affects the brain activity of individuals. Your answer should take about three paragraphs and include:
A detailed explanation of your experimental design including hypothesis, independent and dependent variables, and how you will conduct your study.
Your predictions should be supported by what you have learned about sleep, how sleep deprivation affects the brain, behavior, and mood and at least one dependent variable should measure brain activity as discussed in Unit 2.
This is your chance to show you can integrate material from Unit 1 (experimental design), Unit 2 (brain and behavior) and Unit 4 States of Consciousness.
