A physiological effect where proper REM is not achieved because one has been using consumer electronics right up until the moment of falling asleep (in addition to often leaving them on, which continues to disrupt the sleeping process).

Popularized by a group of graduate students in Singapore, who created the educational site Good in Bed.
