Abstract
In the past fifty years, sleep electroencephalography has emerged as a promising method for diagnosis in psychiatry, for permitting the diagnostician to distinguish between insomnias of anxiety and insomnias of drug abuse, between the excessive sleepiness of depression and that of separate clinical entities like sleep apnea, or, more generally, between sleep complaints of physiological and psychological origins. Beyond these distinctions, sleep electroencephalography has contributed to our conception of sleep; through EEG research we have abandoned the notion of sleep as a period of mental and physical inactivity and replaced it with a picture of sleep as a vital component of our circadian and ultradian rhythms.
