Academic Motivation
and Engagement -
The drive and commitment a student has
toward
their
studies,
which
can
be
influenced by factors like sleep quality and
overall well being.
Affective States -
Emotional conditions or moods (like anxiety
or stress) that influence cognitive functioning
and behavior.
Circadian Process -
The internal biological clock that governs the
sleep wake cycle over a roughly 24-hour
period.
Cognitive Load -
The total amount of mental effort being used
in working memory at any given time.
Cognitive
Resource A theory proposing that mental resources

limited and can be depleted by factors such
as sleep loss.

relationships

key
variables in a study.
Coping Strategies -
Methods or techniques used to manage
stress and challenges, especially important
when dealing with sleep deprivation.

information and events, critical for learning
and information retention.

OF TERMS
Homeostatic Process The regulatory mechanism that builds sleep

balance.
Mediating Variables - Factors
that
explain
the
underlying

relationship between two other variables (for
example,
how
sleep

academic
performance through its impact on cognitive
functions).
Moderating Variables Elements that influence the strength or

between
independent and dependent variables (such

processes
occurring in the brain that support thought,

Procedural Memory - A type of memory involved in performing
tasks and skills, such as riding a bike or
