1. Administration of melatonin
2. Ingestion of alcohol
3. Exercise

Just a general info Q. Exercise has no effect on sleep per se. Rather it's gotta do wth increased cerebral temperatures.
"This, experiments have shown by keeping the exercising person cool, which prevents the sleep effect, while on the other hand, it can be produced simply by sitting in a bathtub of warm water. All of this has nothing to do with muscle recovery."
so the answer is exercise anyway.
Btw, does alcohol increase or Decrease REM?
Melatonin reduces sleep latency......it's better known for sleepiness.
Heres a fun quiz for timepass 
1)How many minutes after I have become still in bed after lying down will i start to see the swiss alps covered with warm melted dark chocolate?
2)If i am walking to the loo at night, and snoring at the same time , what stage of teh sleep cycle am I in?
3)At this point of night, evn though iam asleep my brain waves are very similar to those seen while iam reading a book. wht stage?
3)Iam awake and fresh now and dont recollect a thing abt the choc-covered swiss alps, what stage of the sleep cycle have i most likely awaken out of?
4)Or better yet, i wake up smiling to myself abt the wonderful choc-covered swiss alps, what stage of the sleep cycle am i getting out of now?

good job u both!
1) 90 minutes on an average in a young adult.....increases in depression and decreases with alcohol intake.
2) Stage 3 and 4 or Delta sleep......somnabulism occurs
3) REM brain waves are similar to beta waves(while awake)...both are Low voltage and fast.
4) Stage 2..........thts the stage of the sleep cycle we mostly get out of(and spend the most time in).
5) REM...........Its said we all dream every night but we just dont rmber them. If one can rmber then its most likely they were disturbed out of their REM sleep.
