5.5 hours on average, and long sleepers, who had 8.5 hours or more. It is discovered after a variety of tests

that the long sleepers were poor sleepers, had twice as much REM sleep as the short sleepers, appeared to

sleep longer to make up for poor sleep, and did not wake up in the morning refreshed. Similarly, people who

sleep deeply do not necessarily get a better quality of sleep than shallow sleepers. Deep sleepers can feel tired

the following day, so six hours of good sleep is worth more than eight hours of troubled sleep.
