Introducing an artificial quick language for targeted behavioral modification during sleep

Introduction &Aim:
Ability to change an undesired behavior at the individual level has a great importance not only for health,
but also for personal and social development of humankind. Changing behavior is the basis of treating eating disorders, obesity
and different kinds of addictions such as drug, smoke and recently addiction like mobile phone dependence. Improving a
lifestyle with low physical activity is helpful in prevention of metabolic syndrome. Moreover, many psychiatric disorders benefit
from behavioral modifications. Unfortunately, these simple changes in behavior cannot happen easily. An innovative solution
to this problem can be find through sleep manipulation. For example, researchers have reported successful intervention for
smoke cession by reactivating smoking behavior memories with an unpleasant smell during sleep. This study highlighted the
value of using appropriate cues as potential approaches for communicating with a sleeping person with considerable after
effect. But for complex behaviors the capacity of such meaningful cues for offering during sleep needed to be expanded. Our
purpose in this study was designing and assessment of novel linguistic methods for behavioral changes during sleep.
Methodology & Theoretical Orientation:
We have designed a new Artificial Quick Language (AQL) consisted of a bank of
short sounds conditionedwithmost commonly usedwords with amusical simple grammar.This specific language aftermontage
and playing with specific software can be heard and understood by volunteer subjects after a period of training. Mechanism
for sound selection was based on the shortest equivalent verb in any natural language as a result we have a combination of very
short verbs from different languages. This platform enables us to compose our targeted phrases.
Conclusion&Significance:
Anew sophisticated approach for control of undesired behaviors based on verbally communication
during early stages of sleep is introduced.
