Study finds “dream sleep” can predict students’ test-anxiety levels weeks in advance
A study reveals that more REM sleep early in the semester predicts higher test anxiety before exams, suggesting that "dream sleep" may influence how students experience stress during academically challenging periods.
Researchers identified two neuron types that trigger REM sleep, forming circuits that connect to brain regions controlling cerebral cortex activation, rapid eye movement, and muscle tone loss. Artificially activating this circuit strongly induces REM sleep, even in awake mice
