Sleep is much more complex than we currently know. We have recently found that naturalistic sleep, which can be typically characterised as bimodal with two bouts of sleep with specific REM and non-REM patterns, in early life can influence brain ageing and various cognitive functions, which may help to explain why differences in sleep quantity and quality affect individuals in diverse ways
Hi
I think I have seen a few articles on WNS as well; you might want to refresh your literature review if you have none of the articles mentioning sleep.
Work, non-work and sleep are three major areas of life that are interconnected. A study published in the Journal of Business and Psychology proposed the work, nonwork, and sleep (WNS) conceptual framework and identified specific underlying resource mechanisms operating both intra-individually and inter-individually. The study found that better sleep hygiene contributes to better academic and job performance, as well as higher intellectual development.
