In a study on the effects of sleep restriction on school children, Sadeh found that "moderate changes in sleep duration have detectable significant effects on children's neuropsychological functioning" (453).
One study focused on delinquency in children and found that "youth who slept 7 or fewer hours reported significantly more property delinquency than did youth who slept 8-10 h. (Clickenbeard, 924).
2) The "Monstrosity Paragraph":
Avi Sadeh is a professor at the School of Psychological Sciences as well as the director of the Laboratory for Children's Sleep-Wake Disorders and the director of the Adler Center for Research in Child Development and Psychopathology at Tel Aviv University. His article, "The Effects of Sleep Restriction and Extension on School-Age Children: What a Difference an Hour Makes" which can be found in the 2003 issue of Child Development, reports that "moderate changes in sleep duration have detectable significant effects on children's neuropsychological functioning" (453). Supporting this statement, Samantha Clickenbeard and colleagues found in their article, "Sleep and Delinquency: Does the amount of sleep matter?" published in 2011 in the Journal of Youth and Adolescence, that "youth who slept 7 or fewer hours reported significantly more property delinquency than did youth who slept 8-10 h." (924).
