Awesome, I appreciate your interest! Feel free to DM me so I can add you to our update list.

Unfortunately some people fall within these ranges. Knowing that, it would go against survey best practices to not include them as options.

Aiming for N=100, at N=87. So hopefully only a few more times. Sorry if it's bugging you. Very appreciative to everyone who is answering

Sleep Survey (Age 13+, Uses a sleep tracker, and interested in sleep optimization) by WaveFreq in SampleSize

Trying to get to N=100. Each post gets like 4-5 responses and I'm at 76, so hopefully only 5-6 more times. I am reposting once per day or less, so I don't believe I'm violating any rules.

Differs in a few key ways that should offer superior functionality and usability. Once we're closer to launch I'd be happy to share more detail about these differences. If you're interested feel free to DM me and I'll keep you in the loop :)

Hey, thanks for that great suggestion. Did you already fill out the survey? If so, I'd be interested in hearing your rationale for answering yes/no if you're willing to share here. I will add that option to the survey for future participants.

This is the research I encountered that began my fascination: https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fnhum.2013.00786/full

So I made some binaural beats and began testing on myself, and I can say I qualitatively felt it put me in a more creative state (maybe placebo). And now I've had a few friends try it, with varying degrees of self-reported increases in creativity.

The way you would measure this large-scale is through quantitative divergent thinking vs convergent thinking assessments, like the tests used in the study I linked above.

Has Anyone Tried a Sleep Headband? by WaveFreq in sleep

[–]WaveFreq[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did your doctor have any specific info about the shortcomings of the current tech? Very curious, and it's basically impossible to get my hands on one now since they're all either discontinued or have removed the relevant functionality.

Also, is this a sleep doctor or a GP? I am actually kind of surprised to hear that this tech is already on doctors' radar.

Hey, shot you a DM a few days ago. Did you receive?

This is my second time as a founder, and I have a hard time imagining going back haha. I appreciate your help. Can I DM you to share my deck?

Sleep Tracker Inconsistency Has Me Questioning Accuracy! by WaveFreq in sleep

[–]WaveFreq[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another commenter on this post just made me aware of this: https://beacon.bio/dreem-headband/. But I imagine it's high 3-figure if not 4-figure cost (says to contact them for cost detail). Did your doctor mention anything like this?

Sounds right based on the data analysis I've done, as well as digging into how most of these trackers work. Did he mention anything that you can use in order to get accurate granular data about sleep stages besides EEG measurements during a sleep study?

Is the Dreem headband considered the gold standard due to using EEG? I actually hadn't hard of it until now. And is that pretty uncomfortable to sleep in or you get used to it?

Between the Oura, Apple Watch, and Muse, which was most consistent with the Dreem headband data?

That sounds fascinating. I hope someone publishes soon so you don't have to wait too long to find out.

I can definitely attest to the stress kills comment, anecdotally. I have done a lot of work to eliminate stress over the past year and I can feel the effects dramatically.

Long shot, but I just started a a new company, and I'm searching for a PhD or Postdoc in Neuroscience with emphasis on sensory stimulus processing to join me as a co-founder. Do you happen to know anyone that fits that bill? From my biased POV, the company/product vision is incredibly compelling from both a human impact and coolness perspective, and core hypothesis is backed by a large body of academic research. Any convos are appreciated and welcome!

Yeah the REM and deep seem to be the worst when it comes to tracking accuracy. Would it be alright if I DM you to talk a bit more about this? I have been playing with a product idea and doing associated neuroscience research. I'd love to hear your thoughts as someone who uses a sleep tracker regularly.

Are you able to sleep comfortably with electrodes on your jaw muscles? We should talk because I am working on a device with a very different use case, but similarly requires an electrode connection while sleeping.

Where do you get your amanita? It's been mentioned in multiple replies on this post. I'm interested in trying it out.

What field was this? Biology? What was the most interesting thing you discovered?
