The inability to obtain sufficient sleep is a common condition, and its causes are many. When the condition lasts for a long period, it leads to chronic sleep deprivation, increasing sleepiness and impairing cognitive function to a degree comparable to acute total sleep deprivation. People with behaviorally induced insufficient sleep (BIIS) voluntarily sleep less than their natural sleep requirement. When BIIS is long lasting (≥3 months), it may meet the diagnostic criteria of BIIS syndrome, defined by the International Classification of Sleep Disorders. This review focuses on BIIS in adults, with a special emphasis on work-related aspects.
