????美國(guó)睡眠基金會(huì)（National Sleep Foundation）2007年一項(xiàng)關(guān)注女性睡眠習(xí)慣的調(diào)查顯示,，有學(xué)齡子女并全職工作的母親們自稱(chēng)周一至周五每晚睡眠時(shí)間不足6小時(shí),。但根據(jù)美國(guó)人時(shí)間利用調(diào)查（它的依據(jù)是時(shí)間記錄，而不是對(duì)某些典型夜晚的回憶）,，如果算上周末,，這些女性每晚睡眠的時(shí)間平均在8小時(shí)左右（這意味著除非這些女性周末睡上13個(gè)小時(shí)，否則她們周一至周五每晚睡眠時(shí)間肯定都超過(guò)了6個(gè)小時(shí)）,。
????企業(yè)組織事宜咨詢(xún)公司W(wǎng)ork + Life Fit, Inc.的所有人凱利?威廉姆斯?尤斯特稱(chēng),，這兩項(xiàng)調(diào)查結(jié)果的差異可以歸結(jié)為競(jìng)爭(zhēng)性文化?！坝捎谀撤N原因，想睡覺(jué)或在睡覺(jué)就跟足額休假一樣,，似乎就代表人們并沒(méi)有百分之一百地投入到事業(yè)和家庭中,。”
????“假定有些人真的不需要睡眠,，我想,，除此之外，其他自稱(chēng)睡得少的人要么是相信少睡點(diǎn)確實(shí)沒(méi)影響……要么是睡眠有問(wèn)題,，無(wú)法正常入睡,，或者入睡后經(jīng)常醒來(lái)，而真實(shí)情況是,，如果獲得幫助,，他們也能正常睡覺(jué)?！被蛟S這樣一來(lái),，每天不睡覺(jué)的那其余16-18個(gè)小時(shí)，他們能夠享受到更多的生活樂(lè)趣,。

????According to the 2007 National Sleep Foundation poll, which focused on women's sleep habits, mothers who work full-time and have school aged children claim to spend less than six hours in bed per weeknight. But according to the American Time Use Survey, which relies on time logs rather than memories of typical nights, such women slept an average of around eight hours per night when you include weekends (which means that, unless women sleep 13 hours a night on weekends, they're sleeping more than six on weeknights too).
????You can chalk the disconnect up to a competitive culture, says Cali Williams Yost, owner of Work + Life Fit, Inc., which consults with companies on organizational issues. "Like taking all of your vacation, for some reason, wanting and getting sleep symbolizes a less than 100% commitment not only to your job but your family," she says.
????"Assuming there are some people who truly don't need sleep, I think everyone else who boasts about how little shut eye they require either has convinced themselves it doesn't matter … or they have untreated sleep disorders and they've reframed not being able to fall asleep or stay asleep as normal when, in fact, they could sleep if they got help." Then they might enjoy the rest of their 16 to 18 hours per day a bit more. |
