OverviewAI-generated summary

Jennifer Peszka's research investigates human sensory and cognitive processes, with a particular focus on sleep, sleep deprivation, and their impact on performance and perception. Her work has explored chemosensory event-related potentials, examining how active and passive stimulation influences these responses. Peszka has also studied the effects of sleep deprivation on electroencephalography (EEG) patterns during sleep onset and its relationship with personality traits that may predict subjective and objective impacts. Additional research interests include the relationship between technology use, such as mobile phone usage before bed, and daytime sleepiness, as well as factors related to video game play and lucid dreaming experiences. Her scholarship also extends to educational practices, with publications addressing academic integrity and statistics pedagogy in undergraduate and graduate programs. Peszka has collaborated with researchers from institutions including the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, the University of Central Arkansas, and the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences.
