The objective of this study was to identify if hyperarousal is a 24-hour phenomenon in insomnia by comparing sleep during napping between good sleepers (GS) and Insomnia sufferers (INS) (subdivided into paradoxical "PARA-I" and psychophysiological "PSY-I") following a mentally challenging battery of cognitive tests.
