ADELAIDE, Australia (Reuters Health) - A 10-minute nap is better than a 
half-hour snooze at improving work performance, according to new Australian 
sleep research.

Associate Professor Leon Lack and postgraduate student Amber Tietzel 
studied the effect of varying nap lengths in the School of Psychology Sleep 
Laboratory at Flinders University in Adelaide. They conclude that 10 
minutes is the most effective nap length for improving performance for up 
to 3 hours afterward.
