Abstract

The study sample consisted of 40 people who were complaining of current insomnia. The study groups were classified according to their age and gender, each containing 5 males and 5 females in the same age group. All the subjects were measured for heart rate (HR) and complicated degree. 1. In the 20's age group, the complicated degree of the female subjects is found to be much less than that of the males, suggesting that the pathology of insomnia would be more serious in the young females. 2. In the 30's age group, the complicated degree of both genders are decreased but there is no significant discrepancy between the reduced complicated degree. 3. In the 40's age group, the complicated degree of both genders are decreased but there is no significant discrepancy between the reduced complicated degree. 4. In the 50's age group, the complicated degree of both genders are decreased, however the females with postmenopausal conditions show much more reduction in the complicated degree, compared to the male group.
