Abstract

Sleep deprivation may have a deleterious effect on inhibitory control; however, this effect is not consistent across studies. To arrive at an overall estimate of the relationship between sleep deprivation and inhibitory control, this report used meta-analysis to summarise the magnitude of the effects of sleep deprivation on inhibitory control as measured by the Go/No-Go and Stop Signal Tasks. These are two widely used tasks in the literature. A systematic search of four databases (APAPsycINFO, Medline, CINAHL and Embase) from their inception to November 2023 identified 24 studies involving 712 healthy individuals. Separate random-effects models were used to estimate the effect size of sleep deprivation on performance in these tasks. The meta-analysis revealed a moderate negative effect of sleep deprivation on inhibitory control in both the Go/No-Go and Stop Signal Tasks. Given the importance of inhibitory control in everyday behaviour, future research should investigate the neural and neurophysiological mechanisms underlying this relationship and explore its impact in clinical populations.
