%X Study Protocol. The study began with 2 baseline nights (B1每B2) of 9ˋh nocturnal sleep opportunity followed by the first school week period, during which one group were provided with a 6.5ˋh nocturnal sleep opportunity (00:15每06:45) and the other group 5ˋh nocturnal sleep opportunity (01:00每06:00) with a 1.5ˋh afternoon nap (14:00每15:30). This was followed by a ※weekend§ recovery period of 9ˋh nocturnal sleep opportunity (R11每R12). The second weekday (SR21每SR23) and weekend recovery period (R21每R22) of the experiment matched the first, except with 3-days of manipulation rather than 5. Picture encoding began at the end of the first manipulation period (SR15) and was tested after two nights of recovery (R12). Learning of factual knowledge took place in the morning and afternoon on each weekday of the second manipulation period (SR21每SR23) and was tested after one night of weekend recovery sleep (R21
