Stage N3% seems not affected, and homeostatic experiments suggest that awakenings should not occur until the need for N3% or total spectral power has been satisfied. Furthermore, sleepiness is associated with increased alpha activity and slow eye movements, although the best indicator of dangerous sleepiness is subjective ratings (linked to perceptions of heavy eye lids). Everyday stress has very modest negative effects on objective sleep quality. Sleep loss as well as excessive sleep durations are linked to mortality, but with modest risk, and mainly in older individuals.
