“Sleep texting”
Despite the downsides of sleeping with your phone next to your pillow, many people somehow continue this habit. But now scientists are pointing out that it can have an impact on human behavior.
You might have heard the term “sleep texting” before, which refers to a phenomenon where you send and receive text messages while you sleep without remembering them in the morning.
A study by Villanova University recently stated that more and more young people are falling victim to Sleep Texting. Most of these people do not even know about it.
For the study, 372 students were monitored during their sleep. They asked them about the hours they sleep on weekdays and weekends, and where their phone is when they sleep. 25.6% said that the quality of their sleep was not good and noted that their mobile phone and the fact that they fall asleep while texting plays an important role in this. Among participants, 72% also noted that they don’t remember anything from the messages they sent, verifying that most people can’t remember all the events and decisions that happen before they fall asleep.
