The plus side of placebo sleep,  #tbt

One of the older posts I often go looking for was one I wrote about placebo sleep.

What’s that you say?

Studies show that getting a bad night’s sleep is bad for you,  but knowing about it makes it worse.  People who were told that had a bad night’s sleep, whether or not it was true,  did worse on a series of standard tests.  The reverse was true for people who were told they had a good night’s sleep.
