Effect of Nap on Daytime Functioning in Primary School Students
Previous studies showed that insufficient sleep has a negative impact on children's physical and psychological health. Napping was found to decrease sleepiness and improve daytime functioning in adults and adolescents. The effects of napping on children, however, is unknown. The current study aims to test the effects of short daytime classroom naps on daytime functioning and behaviour in elementary school children.
