TY - JOUR PY - 1989// TI - The influence of a 1 h nap on performance overnight JO - Ergonomics A1 - Rogers, A. S. A1 - Spencer, M. B. A1 - Stone, B. M. A1 - Nicholson, A. N. SP - 1193 EP - 1205 VL - 32 IS - 10 N2 - The effect on performance overnight of a 1 h nap taken at 0200 h was studied in six young female subjects. The subjects completed three schedules, including one with a nap and two without a nap, during which either a placebo or 300 mg caffeine was ingested at 2315 h. Performance was measured from 1700 h in the evening until 1030 h the next morning. Caffeine improved performance overnight on almost all tasks compared with placebo. The nap had some limited beneficial effect compared with placebo, but most tasks remained impaired.
