What is slow-wave sleep?
Slow wave sleep occurs after Stage 1 and Stage 2 sleep, and prior to REM sleep. There is more slow wave sleep present toward the beginning of the night, while more REM sleep is present toward the end of the night's sleep. In slow wave sleep, delta waves are present on the EEG (Electroencephalogram), which measures brain activity. These waves are long and slow, as opposed to the sharp waves of Stage 2 sleep. It is ecause of the shape of these waves that the stage is called slow wave sleep.
Does lots of alpha-theta brain wave activity mean stressed or relaxed?
Lots of alpha-theta brain wave activity mean that you are relaxed. This is because alpha-theta brain activity occurs during the sleep cycle.
Delta sleep is found in what stage of sleep?
3,4. Both stages are now combined and are just called stage 3, SWS ( slow wave sleep) or deep sleep. Stage 3 is the deepest stage.
Is sleep stage of sleep referred to as deep sleep?
There are 4 stages of sleep: Stage 1, Stage 2, Slow wave sleep, and REM. The stages occur in that order. Stage 1 occurs as you are falling asleep, and REM occurs last and contains the craziest dreams. REM is the most difficult to awaken from, so it is likely the stage that you have heard referred to as 'deep sleep'.
