A

Believe of research affects the outcome

37

46
Q

Whatch are the sleep stages?

A

Awake (eyes open) -> alert, beta wave { high frequency, lowest amplitude}
Awake (eyes closed) -> alpha wave
Stage N1 -> light sleep, theta wave
Stage N2 -> deeper sleep, K complexes
Stage N3 -> deepest, non-REM, bedwetting, delta waves {lowest frequency, highest amplitude}
REM -> Dreaming, beta waves
