Daytime dysfunction
no changein humans1
Sleep restriction therapy has no effect on daytime dysfunction in humans (1.94 vs 1.63, P = 0.272).
“Mean of sleep medication intake and daytime dysfunction after intervention were 0.947, 1.94 in experimental group and 0.894, 1.63 in control group respectively, which showed no significant difference (P = 0.903, P = 0.272).”

Sleep restriction therapy improves quality of sleep in humans (from 14.21 to 11.26 vs 13 to 12.78, P = 0.038).
“Independent t-test showed a significant difference after the intervention (P = 0.038).”
