sleep-deprivation-and-cognitive-performance

Impact of sleep deprivation on cognition and reaction time

About Dataset
This dataset explores the effects of sleep deprivation on cognitive performance and emotional regulation, based on a 2024 study conducted in the Middle East. It includes 60 participants from diverse backgrounds, capturing data on sleep duration, sleep quality, daytime sleepiness, cognitive function (reaction times, memory accuracy), and emotional stability. Additionally, it records demographic factors such as age, gender, BMI, and lifestyle influences like caffeine intake, physical activity levels, and stress levels.

The study was conducted using standardized cognitive performance tests, including the Stroop Task, N-Back Test, and Psychomotor Vigilance Task (PVT), commonly used in neuroscience and psychology research. This dataset is structured to support statistical analysis, machine learning applications, and behavioral research. It provides valuable insights for sleep research, mental health studies, and cognitive performance analysis, particularly in the context of Middle Eastern populations and lifestyle factors in 2024.
