Yes, REM quality is affected by sleep deprivation, it will cause REM rebound where youll get longer and more vivid periods of REM sleep. And yes caffeine interferes with sleep entirely in general, it prevents you from falling asleep(this also depends on the amount taken and how often it is taken during the day). From what i've read REM sleep is less affected but you will have more frequent awakenings during the night. and caffeine also shortens deep sleep time and lengthens the duration of your light sleep. |
