Kaylan Wesley Informative Outline AGD: Understanding the relationship between sleep and human health considering productivity and specific behavior. Transition Many people usually ignore their sleep patterns. How does sleep influence their health, productivity and behavior? Significance According to the report by Grandner (2017), sleep is an essential part of human life. Sleep quality determines overall human health. The report claims that people who sleep less than 6 hours or over 9 hours have high mortality. Additionally, poor quality sleep has been linked with conditions like obesity and weight gain. However, such a trend is associated with other factors like age and cultural background. Dr Lawrence J. Epstein claims that sleep deprivation is directly associated with various health risks. Such risks arise due to either lack of sufficient or poor-quality sleep. These conditions include cardiovascular complications and neurocognitive functioning problems. Preview While many studies have been provided speaking about the importance of maintaining quality sleep, many people still argue against its role in achieving better health outcomes. Doctors, as mentioned above, show that quality sleep is a significant health determinant considering complex diseases and conditions like cardiovascular disease. This section explores some of the ideas surrounding the relationship between sleep and health outcomes. Body I. Sleep as a health determinant ? A study by Grandner (2017) argues that maintaining the ideal sleep quality offers the desired health outcomes since it prevents diseases like cardiovascular conditions. ? An article by Daum (2017) claims that people who maintain quality sleep have a high chance of sustaining positive productivity in their workplace and the general community. ? In an article published in Healthline magazine, Leech, J. (2020) claims that good sleep is essential and beneficial to the community since it offers the ideal framework for maintaining a better health outcome. ? People with quality sleep trends are healthy and reduce risks of complex conditions like cardiovascular health complications. Transition Many people may ignore the potential effects of maintaining quality sleep. Such a trend may create a framework for the onset of various health conditions. On the same note, there is a need to understand how lack of quality sleep affects human functioning addressing productivity trends. I. Sleep quality and productivity ? Kemmis (2019) satirically asks, ‘What if you could take a pill that improved your productivity at work? And what if the pill were free?’ However, the Zapier magazine article claims that an alternative is getting sufficient quality sleep while no such pill exists. ? On the same note, Magnavita & Garbarino (2017) report that employees who maintain between 6 and 9 sleeping duration and trend have higher productivity than those who have reduced or excess time. ? This study confirms that these employees have high productivity trends in the workplace. ? The Meta-analysis study by Litwiller, Snyder, Taylor & Steele (2017) shows that maintaining a positive sleep trend is strategic in improving the quality of work performed. Employees with quality sleep have a high chance of reporting positive productivity. Transition People who have enough sleep are subject to improved productivity. The studies above show that maintaining a positive sleep trend is strategic for maintaining the ideal quality of work output. However, specific human behaviour is influenced by the sleep quality they report and maintain. I. Sleep and understanding specific human behaviour ? According to the Cleveland Clinic (2020), lack of sufficient and quality sleep leads to increased daytime sleepiness. This condition can reduce the overall body alertness, which is dangerous for the people operating machinery. ? Secondly, a study reviewed by Dr Alex Dimitriu and written by Suni (2020) claims that it is likely to encounter or experience a ‘zombie-like’ feeling after a night of insufficient rest. This experience is translated into drowsiness during the day, which undermines productivity. ? Slowed thinking, worsening memory, reduced daily energy and poor or risky decision-making trends are common behavioural traits that people who do not get sufficient sleep encounter or report. ? On the same note, Suni (2020) argues that people who do not get sufficient sleep are likely to report mood changes that affect their reasoning and community relationships. Review/conclusion From the analysis given above, sleep is one of the human aspects that many people disregard concerning its effects on their overall behaviour and health outcomes. Scientific studies reported above and expert opinions from doctors show that sleep deprivation is common. Additionally, failing to get enough and quality sleep undermines productivity. Further, people with poor sleeping habits are likely to encounter behavioural traits like drowsiness, poor decision-making, and mood changes. There is, therefore, a need to maintain positive sleep patterns to prevent adverse health, social and behavioural effects. References Cleveland Clinic. (2020).

MLA In-Text Citations: The Basics

Guidelines for referring to the works of others in your text using MLA style are covered throughout the MLA Handbook and in chapter 7 of the MLA Style Manual. Both books provide extensive examples, so it’s a good idea to consult them if you want to become even more familiar with MLA guidelines or if you have a particular reference question.

BASIC IN-TEXT CITATION RULES

In MLA Style, referring to the works of others in your text is done using parenthetical citations. This method involves providing relevant source information in parentheses whenever a sentence uses a quotation or paraphrase. Usually, the simplest way to do this is to put all of the source information in parentheses at the end of the sentence (i.e., just before the period). However, as the examples below will illustrate, there are situations where it makes sense to put the parenthetical elsewhere in the sentence, or even to leave information out.

General Guidelines

• The source information required in a parenthetical citation depends (1) upon the source medium (e.g. print, web, DVD) and (2) upon the source’s entry on the Works Cited page.
• Any source information that you provide in-text must correspond to the source information on the Works Cited page. More specifically, whatever signal word or phrase you provide to your readers in the text must be the first thing that appears on the left-hand margin of the corresponding entry on the Works Cited page.

IN-TEXT CITATIONS: AUTHOR-PAGE STYLE

MLA format follows the author-page method of in-text citation. This means that the author’s last name and the page number(s) from which the quotation or paraphrase is taken must appear in the text, and a complete reference should appear on your Works Cited page. The author’s name may appear either in the sentence itself or in parentheses following the quotation or paraphrase, but the page number(s) should always appear in the parentheses, not in the text of your sentence. For example:

Wordsworth stated that Romantic poetry was marked by a “spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings” (263).

Romantic poetry is characterized by the “spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings” (Wordsworth 263).

Wordsworth extensively explored the role of emotion in the creative process (263).

Both citations in the examples above, (263) and (Wordsworth 263), tell readers that the information in the sentence can be located on page 263 of a work by an author named Wordsworth. If readers want more information about this source, they can turn to the Works Cited page, where, under the name of Wordsworth, they would find the following information:

Wordsworth, William. Lyrical Ballads. Oxford UP, 1967.

IN-TEXT CITATIONS FOR PRINT SOURCES WITH KNOWN AUTHOR

For print sources like books, magazines, scholarly journal articles, and newspapers, provide a signal word or phrase (usually the author’s last name) and a page number. If you provide the signal word/phrase in the sentence, you do not need to include it in the parenthetical citation.

Human beings have been described by Kenneth Burke as “symbol-using animals” (3).

Human beings have been described as “symbol-using animals” (Burke 3).

These examples must correspond to an entry that begins with Burke, which will be the first thing that appears on the left-hand margin of an entry on the Works Cited page:

Burke, Kenneth. Language as Symbolic Action: Essays on Life, Literature, and Method. University of California Press, 1966.
