stages ranging from wakefulness to dreaming. As this process progresses the activity in brain waves changes. This brain activity can be measured using electroencephalograms. Stage 1 is a transition state between sleeping and waking. In this stage “EEG is low-voltage‚ high-frequency signal that is similar to‚ but slower than‚ that of alert wakefulness.” (Pinel‚ 2011‚ p. 357). In this stage the eyes move more slowly and the muscle activity slows as well. Stage 1 sleep is a light sleep stage and one

ABA therapy is known to help children function within reason in everyday life. Therefore the cognitive functions of learning and memory should be increased with ABA therapy. Even though there are tons of instances where ABA therapy has worked for children with ASD‚ there has been minimal research to support this. ABA

Non-REM stages are the stages where there is no rapid eye movement. Then the last stage is REM sleep where

Brain on Fire is a remarkable example of the frightening horrors most people endure in health care when symptomatology and diagnostic tests remain inconclusive for a definitive diagnosis. Susannah Cahalan suffered from a rare autoimmune disease‚ at that time‚ and her story was well portrayed in a series of events that drove her to madness until one doctor was able to unlock the puzzle and provide her and her family with answers. A summary of her disease progression will be discussed briefly. Susannah’s
