The effects of bedtime writing on difficulty falling asleep: A polysomnographic study comparing to-do lists and completed activity lists

What this work gives Aellic

57 young adults, 5 minutes of writing at bedtime, sleep measured by polysomnography: people who wrote a to-do list fell asleep significantly faster than those who wrote about activities they had completed; the more specific the list, the faster they fell asleep. There was no no-writing control group.
