Abstract
A new model describing the physiological basis of [human] sleep cycle oscillation has already been applied to the understanding of the dream process. The implications of the model for other processes of interest to psychosomatic medicine are explored. They are the following: hallucinoid psychosis, periodic mood disorders, sleep disorders, especially apnea and epilepsy. A particular conceptual feature of the model is developed in discussing each example.
