Effects of increased homeostatic sleep pressure on postural control and their modulation by attentional resources

Highlights ► First evidence that increased sleep pressure has a direct destabilizing effect on postural control without any manipulation of attentional or sensory resources. ► Supports the hypothesis that attentional resources modulate the relation between sleep and postural control. ► Results sugge...

Description
Summary:Highlights ► First evidence that increased sleep pressure has a direct destabilizing effect on postural control without any manipulation of attentional or sensory resources. ► Supports the hypothesis that attentional resources modulate the relation between sleep and postural control. ► Results suggesting that psychomotor speed mediate the influence of sleep deprivation and cognitive load on postural control.
