Is daylight savings time turning us all into jerks? In several studies on sleep deprivation, researchers at UC Berkeley found that people give 10% less money to charity immediately following the switch to daylight savings time. But there was no drop in states that don’t participate in daylight savings. And that's just one way a lack of rest makes you more selfish. In general, sleep deprivation causes a “significant decrease in the desire to help others," whether they be strangers or people we personally know. But it looks like quality can actually be more important than quantity, as participants who self-reported low quality sleep were far less likely to help others. Add this to other studies that show daylight savings also causes an uptick of fatal car accidents, this sleep loss basically makes us walking disasters.
