Biological Rhythms  Circadian rhythm – the regular bodily rhythm that occurs over a 24-hour period; the biological clock  Regulated by the suprachiasmatic nucleus, which responds to light and triggers the pineal gland to decrease melatonin Video: Circadian Rhythms Video: Circadian Rhythms

 Circadian rhythms are known to produce “highs and lows” of mental acuity that vary throughout the day. In what ways can you use this information to improve efficiency in your lives?  Does our North American “nine to five” model fit what we now know about circadian rhythms? Do other cultures handle this better? Video Review

REM (rapid-eye- movement) Sleep  “Dreaming” sleep  Freud’s Theory of Dreams – dreams allow us to fulfill desires which can’t be fulfilled in reality.  Manifest and Latent Content  Activation Synthesis theory – dreams are brains attempt at creating meaning from random neural activity.

The Effects of Sleep Deprivation  Fatigue  Impairment of concentration, creativity, communication  Can lead to obesity, hypertension, suppressed immune system  Can lead to irritability and slowed performance
