Sleepiness is commonly seen in adolescents and can negatively impact school performance. Little research has investigated the impact of sleepiness in juvenile animals on spatial learning. Sprague-Dawley juvenile (<30 days) and young adult (>60 days) rats were sleep deprived for 24 hours and tested, along with controls, in a water maze task. Sleep deprived juveniles were slower to learn the location of the hidden platform than controls; however, adult performance was not impaired. Sleep deprivation did not impair recall during a probe trial for either age group. Sleep deprivation prior to testing slowed spatial learning in juveniles but not adults. |
