目前的研究使用事件相关电位来检查睡眠困难影响幼儿注意力处理的候选过程。15名幼儿参与了一个听觉怪球任务，同时收集了神经生理学数据。睡眠不足用活动记录仪来评估，注意力用持续注意力任务来检查。从幼儿身上激发出一种类似P3的成分，较长的P3目标潜伏期与较差的持续注意力和不规律的睡眠有关。研究结果表明，不规律的睡眠与较低效率的注意力处理有关，这反映在P3部分，较长的P3目标潜伏期与较差的持续注意力有关。
The current study used event-related potentials to examine a candidate process through which sleep difficulties affect attentional processing in toddlers. Fifteen toddlers participated in an auditory Oddball Task while neurophysiological data were collected. Sleep deficits were assessed using actigraphs, and attention was examined with a sustained attention task. A P3-like component was elicited from the toddlers, and longer target P3 latencies were associated with poorer sustained attention and irregular sleep. Findings suggest that irregular sleep is associated with less efficient attentional processing as reflected by the P3 component, and that longer target P3 latencies are associated with poorer sustained attention.
