Study Summary
This trial is looking at whether being overweight or obese affects cognitive function in adolescents, and whether this is due to sleep or stigma. 60 adolescents will complete two sleep conditions (adequate and restricted) and have their cognition tested. They will also be given a breakfast at each lab visit to assess whether nutrition plays a role.
