Electronics and Sleep
Allie Morris, Film 240
Using electronics within an hour of
going to sleep has been proven to
be detrimental to "sleep quality
and quantity, along with daytime
alertness ⑴.”

“Americans report very active
technology use in the hour
before trying to sleep. Almost
everyone surveyed, 95%, uses
some type of electronics like a
television, computer, video
game or cell phone at least a
few nights a week within the
hour before bed ⑴.”

Of the same surveyed group, over 63% of
participants claimed that their sleep needs were
not being met during the week ⑴.

Electronics promote
wakefulness by emitting
melatonin
suppressing light,
keeping the mind alert,
and disrupting bedtime
associations ⑴.⑴ https://sleep.org/articles/ways-technology-affects-sleep/

Device screens expose us to a blue light that
suppresses the body from producing the crucial
hormone melatonin ⑴.

⑵ https://sleep.org/articles/ways-technology-affects-sleep/
Melatonin is “the hormone that controls your sleep/wake
cycle or circadian rhythm.” Reducing melatonin makes it
harder to fall and stay asleep ⑴. To avoid this it is
recommended to cut off screen time an hour before going
to sleep ⑵.

Electronics increase
alertness by “keeping your
mind engaged. Technology
can trick your brain into
thinking that it needs to
stay awake (1).”

Electronic experiences
can be mentally and
physically stimulating,
making it hard to
relax and rest (1).

“Texting and emailing after lights outs, even once
per week, dramatically increases self-reported
daytime sleepiness among teens (1).”
Photo by pixabay.com
Keeping a device in the room while sleeping can
disturb rest as well. Alerts, chimes, and tones
from various reminders and messages can disrupt
rest significantly (1).
(1) https://sleep.org/articles/ways-technology-affects-sleep/

“When we use our devices in bed, we
create a learned association as the bed
being a place of study or work or
socializing – NOT a place for sleeping (1).”
(1) http://techtimeout.com/three-ways-technology-impacts-sleep
Photo by picjumbo.com
Sources suggest to take work materials,
computers and televisions out of the sleeping
environment. Use the bed only to sleep in order
to strengthen the association between bed and
sleep.

The bedroom should be a place where sleep is
the one and only focus. Electronics
contaminate this environment, causing major
sleep issues across the nation.

To avoid this it is recommended to cut off screen time an hour before going to sleep ⑵. Photo by pixabay.com
  • 8. (1) https://sleep.org/articles/ways-technology-affects-sleep/ Electronics increase alertness by “keeping your mind engaged. Technology can trick your brain into thinking that it needs to stay awake (1).” Photo by picjumbo.com
