So in many ways sleep is the primary activity in the developing brain
所以從很多方面來說 睡眠是大腦發育的主要活動
Also it's important to recognize
同時 我們還需要認識到
that across species is important during early development
睡眠對很多物種的早期發育都至關重要
Sleep is more important in early development
睡眠對各種動物的早期發育起著非常重要的作用
whether you are talking about puppies, kittens
無論是小狗 還是小貓
baby monkeys, human infants or drosophila
或者小猴子 人類的小嬰兒 甚至是果蠅
Periods of brain development and early development
大腦的發育以及早期的生理發育
are associated with greater need for sleep
都急切地需要睡眠
that's not just rest actually operationalize as sleep
不是休息 不能把休息視作睡眠
and I'm gonna get to the differences in a moment
我一會兒會對兩者的差別進行區分
Finally, one more the framing issue
在我再次開始講解青春期相關的問題之前
before I dive into the adolescents story again
我還要提一個宏觀性的問題
is this idea that sleep is intertwined
也就是睡眠和很多調節系統
with multiple regulatory systems
有著千絲萬縷的聯系
particularly from the developmental perspective
特別是從發育的角度來看更是如此
It's not just going to sleep
不光是睡覺
it's sleep-arousal regulation
而是和睡眠-蘇醒的調節系統
and that's intertwined with sleep and temperature regulation
和睡眠-體溫調節系統
sleep and metabolic regulation
睡眠-代謝調節系統
sleep and circadian regulation
睡眠-生理規律調節系統
and sleep and emotion regulation
以及睡眠-情感調節系統有著密切的關系
The earlier you go into development
進入發育階段的時間越早
the more intertwined these systems are
這些系統之間聯系得越密切
including the social contexts
包括作為這些系統存在基礎的社會背景
that set the stage for these
其影響也更大
But I want to highlight one other issue
但我想強調
about the framework for thinking about sleep
睡眠的框架性問題
Again, I'm just gonna do this conceptual
我還是從概念
almost metaphorical level for a moment
或者比喻的角度來講這個問題
And I'll come back later to
講完之后
how this maybe operationalize empirical studies
再講如何將概念性研究應用到實證研究中
It's part of what I think governs the mystery of sleep that
我想講的是控制睡眠的機制
you know, sleep is ubiquitous across species
大家知道 所有物種都要睡覺
is necessary for life
睡眠是生命的必要組成部分
Animals can't even survive without sleep
動物如果不睡覺就無法生存
and yet the actual function and purpose of sleep is still relatively unknown
但是人們對睡眠真正的功能和目的 了解得并不夠
In order to really zoom in on that
為了更清晰的看清楚這個問題
it's important to highlight the difference between sleep and rest
有必要對睡眠和休息進行區分
because rest is not sleep
因為休息不是睡眠
and it's interesting to think about what the difference is
思考兩者之間的區別很有意思
