Ah okay, so basically you're saying that the mortality vs > 7 hour sleep time correlation claim hasn't normalized / accounted for other parent causes (e.g. chronic illness and other things affecting / disturbing sleep quality)? I'm a noob here, but if that is the case, that is very unfortunate and frustrating.
- slver 5y agoI've not seen a single study to demonstrate causative link, or conclusively eliminate other variables (which is frankly quite impossible anyway). Unfortunately a lie repeated a thousand times (by media) becomes truth. And it's just too juicy of a news to say "sleeping too much bad for health". Especially managers, they love that kind of news ;-) BTW my frustration is pointed at general media and society, not you in particular, I wasn't clear.
