The aim of this paper is to explore and to analyze the set of formal elements that makes up the time of Wasabi by Alan Pauls. The topic of debt is here understood as our starting point. There are three debts: one extratextual and two purely economic (contracted within fiction). Our hypothesis is that the three debts, linked together, are not only paid fictionally with the child born at the end of the text (analogy between art and life); nor only with the monstrosity of the cyst (link between body and writing), but with time. Narcolepsies, those chronic sleep disorders are, well looked at, temporary coins through which fiction collects the debt that the writer contracts with it.

This paper provides background on the process to enhance human reliability analysis (HRA) for long-duration space applications. While short-duration missions largely mirror ground activities and fit well with existing HRA methods, new missions to the Moon or Mars entail a significantly longer duration of time in space for astronauts. This extended period in space presents opportunities to affect astronaut performance that require consideration of new performance shaping factors (PSFs). In the present paper, we conducted a meta-analysis on fatigue and developed a new PSF to account for chronic sleep deprivation associated with long-duration space missions. Fatigue provides a starting point for additional PSFs needed for space HRA.

Getting adequate sleep is a healthy lifestyle activity that is important for the body to function optimally both physically and mentally. Unfortunately, 70 million Americans suffer from chronic sleep loss or sleep disorders. Secondary causes of sleep disorders are often overlooked and can occur from the consumption of social or medicinal drugs. Common social drugs that can disrupt sleep include alcohol, caffeine, and nicotine. Certain medications can also have side-effects that can induce sleep disruptions. This article briefly reviews common social drugs and prescription medications that can negatively impact sleep.
