Do you have any evidence to support those claims, specifically that night owl's "natural" sleep cycle falls in line with school times? There is substantial biological evidence that phenotypes for night owls vs. morning larks do actually exist. Are you suggesting it is "natural" for a night owl to be focused at 8am, which is around the average start time for the earliest classes in our education system?
- leshow 9y agoCorrect me if I'm wrong, but the study itself didn't look near this rigorous. It looks like they made 3 buckets and tried to correlate them with performance. How can you do that and they say "aha! look! circadian rhythms"? How do we know that the students who stayed up late aren't also the students that procrastinate and do all their work last minute, and thus recieve lower grades? That seems like just as reasonable a conclusion to draw.
