Article's of Sleep#1 "Being A Night Owl In High School is Linked With Lower College GPA"


The study was conducted by researchers who will present their study at the 23rd Annual Meeting of the Associated Professional Sleep Societies. The method of this research was to research students who consider themselves being evening types have a least amount of sleep hygiene scores than morning and intermediate types.  The study was based on data from 89 students mostly between 17 and 20 years old preparing to begin their freshman yearn and 34 of those students as they completed their freshman year at a liberal arts collage. The results of this experiment were that sleep hygiene was related to poorer academic performance causing a decline in the grade point average during the transition from high school to collage. In my opinion this article is very interesting and clearly shows how poor sleep affects you GPA and that sleep is very important especially if you want to succeed in your grades.
