Abstract: Significant correlations between prebedtime activities and sleep satisfaction varied with sleep length in 115 college students: 15 short sleepers who listened to music were less satisfied with sleep, while 18 long sleepers who snacked on milk and sweets were more satisfied with sleep. Longer sleepers may substitute alcohol for food as they grow older.
