A Case Study Tracking The Cognitive Impact Of Insomnia
Journal Title: International Journal of Behavioral Research & Psychology (IJBRP) - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
A case study is used to illustrate cognitive factors related to poor sleep quality in a young adult. The participant was a healthy patient outside of his sleep disturbance. Changes in cognitive functioning were evaluated with the Repeatable Battery for Assessment of Neuropsychological Status (RBANS). The profile of performance for the participant was similar to that previously reported for mild cognitive impairment due to head trauma. The implication to health (i.e., cognitive functioning) for sleep disturbance is presented.
