22、crifice sleep in exchange for productivity, many long for the weekend so they may regain quality time with their bed. Although people regularly claim theyre going to “catch up on sleep” during this 48-hour period, there has been doubt as to whether or not doing so was even possible.Psychologist Torb
23、jorn Akerstedt and his colleagues published findings in the Journal of Sleep Research that focus on the impact of sleeping in on days offthe weekend, for mostand how some additional snooze(打盹) time might make up for lost sleep on weekdays. The study,which tracked more than 43,000 people over a perio
24、d of 13 years, found that participants younger than 65 who slept for fewer than five hours per night on weekdays faced a 52 percent higher death rate, while those who slept for fewer than the recommended seven hours per night on weekdays but slept for an extra hour or two on week ends lived as long
25、as individuals who slept seven hours each night in the entire week.According to the study summary, among individuals more than 65 years old, no association between weekend sleep or weekday sleep time and death rate was observed.

27、experimental conclusion” will require further exploration. His peers agreed with this opinion, as well.For instance, Michael Grandner, director of the Sleep and Health Research Program at the Universityof Arizonas College of Medicine, warned that sleeping in on a weekend is like eating a salad after
