Abstract
Continuous sleep recordings were obtained for eight reliable snorers. Although most snoring occurred during Stage 2 sleep, it was found that the tendency to snore was not significantly different for the various sleep stages. However, the greatest amount of snoring occurred at the beginning of the night.
