- Soldiers who experience sleep problems during basic combat training may be more likely to struggle with psychological distress, attention difficulties, and anger issues during their entry into the military, a recent study suggests.
About 61per cent of the soldiers in the study never had a sleep problem. Another 13per cent started out with sleep issues but recovered during training, while 20per cent developed sleep problems during training and about 7per cent had chronic sleep issues throughout the study. The current study wasn't a controlled experiment, so it can't prove sleep problems caused issues with mood, attention or anger reactions. Another limitation is that researchers relied on soldiers to accurately recall and report on any problems with sleep, attention, anger or mood. And the study didn't assess sleep duration or underlying factors that might lead some soldiers to develop sleep problems while others did not.
