It is well-known that lack of sleep impairs concentration and alertness, and this might be due partly to late night food consumption.
A 2015 study took 44 people aged 21 to 50 and gave them unlimited access to food and drink during the day,
but allowed them only 4 hours of sleep per night for three consecutive nights. On the fourth night, all participants again
had to stay up until 4 am, but this time participants were randomized into two groups; one group was only given access to
water from 10 pm until their bedtime at 4 am while the other group still had unlimited access to food and drink for all
hours. The group forced to fast from 10 pm on performed significantly better on tests of reaction time and had fewer
attention lapses than the group with access to late night food. please answer following 6 questions.
What is the explanatory variable?
reaction time and attention lapses
Weather or not eat at late night
