LucCogZest<p>Now on ResearchGate: A free <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/preprint" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>preprint</span></a> of an article describing the theory behind the <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/cognitiveShuffle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cognitiveShuffle</span></a> is available on ResearchGate. It's called the somnolent information processing theory. It will be in the upcoming <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/CambridgeUniversityPress" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CambridgeUniversityPress</span></a> book on sleep theories edited by Daniel Kay:<br><a href="https://www.researchgate.net/publication/390502925_Towards_a_somnolent_information-processing_theory_Understanding_the_human_sleep-onset_control_system_from_an_integrative_design-oriented_perspective" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">researchgate.net/publication/3</span><span class="invisible">90502925_Towards_a_somnolent_information-processing_theory_Understanding_the_human_sleep-onset_control_system_from_an_integrative_design-oriented_perspective</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/sleep" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sleep</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/insomnia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>insomnia</span></a></p>
LucCogZest<p>Today the New York Times published "What Is Cognitive Shuffling?" <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/03/20/well/mind/sleep-cognitive-shuffling.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">nytimes.com/2025/03/20/well/mi</span><span class="invisible">nd/sleep-cognitive-shuffling.html</span></a> . In February, BBC Science Focus published an article on the technique: <a href="https://www.sciencefocus.com/wellbeing/how-to-stop-insomnia" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">sciencefocus.com/wellbeing/how</span><span class="invisible">-to-stop-insomnia</span></a> <br>I was interviewed for both pieces. </p><p>The <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/cognitiveShuffle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cognitiveShuffle</span></a> has gotten a lot of attention in the last 1.5 years. <br>This tiktok video by Dr. Scott A. Walter has had over 609,000 likes.<br><a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@denverskindoc/video/7368264490028404014" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">tiktok.com/@denverskindoc/vide</span><span class="invisible">o/7368264490028404014</span></a>. After that video, a whole bunch of other tiktok and youtube videos were made about it.</p><p>For those who want something more in-depth, later this year a chapter of mine and Sheryl Guloy's on the theory behind the cognitive shuffle and a description of the technique will be published in a Cambridge University Press book, Sleep Theories. The chapter is called</p><p>"Towards a somnolent information-processing theory: Understanding the human sleep-onset control<br>system from an integrative design-oriented perspective"<br><a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/insomnia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>insomnia</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/sleep" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sleep</span></a></p>
LucCogZest<p>I am delighted that our chapter on the Somnolent Information Processing theory, with a section on the cognitive shuffle, has been accepted for publication in the upcoming The Cambridge Handbook of Sleep Theories and Models. <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/sleep" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sleep</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/cognitiveShuffle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cognitiveShuffle</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/papers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>papers</span></a></p>
