Wake-up reaction
When a sleeping person changes from a deep sleep into the lightest sleep phase, or wakes up completely, the sleep researchers of the German Aerospace Center (DLR) speak of a Wake-up reaction. Even in a quiet environment, sleepers will experience such a wake-up reaction around 20 to 30 times a night. Usually they cannot remember this in the morning.
