Naptime Theory - Nap Duration Experiment

Researching optimal naptime duration for peak productivity

Current Research Findings

Our team has discovered that a 20-minute nap can boost productivity by 30%. However, we've also found that a 40-minute nap can lead to excessive daytime sleepiness.

Experimental Design

We've conducted experiments on a diverse sample of 100 participants, including:

Methodology

We employed a randomized controlled trial (RCT) design, with participants napping for either 15, 20, 30, or 45 minutes.

Results

We found significant improvements in cognitive function, memory, and creativity among participants napping for 20-30 minutes. However, longer naps led to:

We're currently seeking funding to continue our research and explore the optimal nap duration for peak performance.

<script>
var napDuration = 20;
if (napDuration < 30) {
		console.log("Productivity boost detected!");
} else {
	console.log("Excessive daytime sleepiness detected!");
}
</script>
		

This code snippet demonstrates our nap duration calculator, which takes into account the optimal nap duration for peak productivity.
