               The study was authored by, Zaw W. Htwe, MD, of Norwalk Hospital´s Sleep Disorders Center in Norwalk, Conn., and Mary B. O´Malley, MD, PhD was a corresponding author of the study. This research focused on 259 high school students; they were given the School Sleep Habits Questionnaire. The answers reported how much time students slept before and after the delayed school start time. The findings of this study show that a 40-min delay in the school start time increased a 33min of sleep for the students of the institution. Surprisingly the students used the extra time for sleep not for socializing or other extracurricular activities; wake up time was delayed not bed time.
