Survey says most Americans don’t sleep well—but they do wear PJs

The study reveals that 74% of Americans wear pajamas to bed (8% sleep naked). The same percentage sleep on their sides and 47% share a bed with someone who snores.

Nearly two-thirds say they get a restful night’s sleep three nights or fewer per week, 10% say they get a good night’s sleep every night and a quarter say they sleep well five or six nights per week.

More than half of respondents say they are able to recall fewer than one-quarter of their dreams, while about 10% are able to recall nearly all their dreams from the previous night. Surprisingly, nearly 70% say their dreams were not as interesting as their friends’ dreams.
