Abstract
This preliminary study tested if one night of partial sleep deprivation (≤ 4 hours of sleep) vs. typical sleep affected disordered eating before and after a test meal. This novel study showed no statistically significant differences between sleep conditions, suggesting that partial sleep deprivation does not affect next-day disordered eating.
