Summary

This trial will test how sleep deprivation affects a person's ability to discriminate, as well as their cardiovascular health. The study will specifically focus on African Americans to see how they are affected.

Who is the study for?
This study is for English-speaking African Americans aged 18-64 who usually sleep between 10 PM and 12 AM, with a normal sleep duration of 6.5 to 8.5 hours confirmed by actigraphy and diary. Excluded are those over age 64, BMI of 40+, with clinical sleep disorders or on medications affecting sleep/cardiovascular function.
What is being tested?
The trial examines how restricted sleep affects perceptions of discrimination and cardiovascular health in African Americans. It will also explore factors that might influence the link between racial discrimination experiences and actual sleep patterns.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves sleep restriction, potential side effects may include increased fatigue, irritability, difficulty concentrating, mood changes, and possibly elevated blood pressure due to stress.
