Abstract：
Objective: To examine relationships between sleep, alcohol consumption, and a physiological and behavioral marker of cognitive function in college students. College students are in a high risk category for high alcohol consumption and poor sleep quality, two unhealthful behaviors which can lead to poor mental health outcomes and compromised academic performance. Participants: Thirty college students from a large midwestern institution. Methods: Participants performed an interhemispheric transfer task while their electroencephalography was recorded for later examination of event-related potentials. They were also administered the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test, and the Alcohol Timeline Follow-Back. Results: Results demonstrate that increased alcohol consumption is associated with poor right-to-left interhemispheric transfer performance, and increased frontal P1 ERP amplitudes to neuro-ipsilateral targets requiring an interhemispheric-transfer. Conclusions: These findings assist in furthering explorations into the impacts of unhealthy behaviors in college students and underlying markers of simple cognitive and behavioral function.
摘要：
目的：研究睡眠之间的关系，酒精消费,以及大学生认知功能的生理和行为标志。大学生是高饮酒量和睡眠质量差的高危人群,两种不健康的行为，可能导致不良的心理健康结果和影响学习成绩。参与者：来自中西部一家大型机构的30名大学生。方法：参与者执行半球间转移任务，同时记录他们的脑电图，以便以后检查事件相关电位。他们还接受了匹兹堡睡眠质量指数，酒精使用障碍鉴定测试，和酒精时间线跟进。结果：结果表明，饮酒增加与左右半球间转移性能差相关，额叶P1ERP幅度增加到需要半球间转移的神经同侧目标。结论：这些发现有助于进一步探索大学生不良行为的影响以及简单认知和行为功能的潜在标志。
