There are problems with generalising findings of the
sleep/wake cycle
from
animals studies
to humans
A more disturbing issue however particularly in relation to the
DeCoursey
et al study is the
ethics
involved in such research
The animals were exposed to
considerable
harm
and
subsequent
risk when they were returned to their natural habitat
whether what we learn from
investigation
s such as these justifies the
aversiv
e procedures involves is a matter of debate
