States of Consciousness
Freud’s Levels of Consciousness • Conscious Level: perceptions, thought • Preconscious Level: memories, stored knowledge • Unconscious Level: selfish needs, violent motives, immoral urges, fears, irrational wishes, shameful experiences, unacceptable desires
Consciousness • Awareness of oneself and one’s environment, Both inside and out. • Selective attention- focusing on a particular stimulus.
Sleep and Sleep Deficit
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)
Module 20: Sleep, Dreams, and Body Rhythms Why We Sleep
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
Module 20: Sleep, Dreams, and Body Rhythms Sleep Stages, REM, and Dreaming: The Stages of Sleep
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
Module 20: Sleep, Dreams, and Body Rhythms Sleep Stages, REM, and Dreaming: REM Sleep
REM Sleep • Stages 1 - 4 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
Module 20: Sleep, Dreams, and Body Rhythms Sleep Stages, REM, and Dreaming: Why Do We Dream?
Information-Processing Theory • Dreams serve an important memoryrelated 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.
Module 20: Sleep, Dreams, and Body Rhythms Sleep Disorders and Sleep Problems: Insomnia
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
Module 20: Sleep, Dreams, and Body Rhythms Sleep Disorders and Sleep Problems: Sleep Apnea
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
Module 20: Sleep, Dreams, and Body Rhythms Sleep Disorders and Sleep Problems: Narcolepsy
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
Module 20: Sleep, Dreams, and Body Rhythms Sleep Disorders and Sleep Problems: Other Sleep Problems
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 • Teeth grinding • Bed wetting • Sudden jerk of a body part occurring during stage 1 sleep – Everyone has occasional episodes
