睡得越多賺得越多！是真的！

We all know sleep matters for job performance. After a week of vacation, you may find your work better than ever. It wouldn't surprise anyone that sleep affects attention, memory and cognition — important factors in the workplace. But striking new research suggests the effect of additional sleep has a high monetary value.
我們都知道睡眠能影響工作表現。外出度假一週，你可能就會發現自己的工作相比從前有所起色。如果說睡眠能影響工作中一些重要元素，如注意力、記憶力和認知水平，沒有人會感到諒異。但是一項驚人的新研究表明：多睡覺能帶來巨大的貨幣價值。

A paper — from Matthew Gibson of Williams College and Jeffrey Shrader of the University of California at San Diego, based on data from Jawbone, the fitness- and sleep-tracker company — says that additional time sleeping can translate into thousands of dollars in wages.
威廉姆斯學院的馬修·吉普森和加州大學聖迭戈分校的傑弗裏·施雷德根據健身和睡眠跟蹤公司Jawbone的數據作了一篇論文，認爲多出的睡眠時間可以轉化成數千美元的薪資。

In fact, they calculate that a one-hour increase in weekly sleep raises wages by about half as much as an additional year of education.
事實上，根據他們的計算，每週多睡1小時增加的工資，相當於多上1年學漲薪水平的1/2。

Now, the story is not so simple. Don't think you can start to sleep more and you will instantly make more money. It's more about the subtle interplay between how people schedule their lives, how much time they have available to sleep and how that affects worker performance and, ultimately, earnings.
呃……事情其實沒那麼簡單。不要以爲你可以開始多睡覺，然後就能立刻賺到更多錢。這裏面還有一些微妙的互動調整，關乎人們如何計劃他們的生活、他們有多少時間可以用來睡覺、睡眠如何影響工作表現，還有最後如何影響到薪水。

They find that a one-hour increase in average weekly sleep in a location increases wages by 1.3 percent in the short run, which include changes of less than a year, and 5 percent in the long run. By moving to a location where a sunset is one hour earlier, a worker will make an additional $1,570 a year.
他們發現，在一個固定地區，每週平均多睡1小時，薪水短期（1年內）會漲1.3%，長期會漲5%。而如果搬到一個日落早1小時的地區，每人每年可多賺1570美元。

Not all of these wage differences are due directly to sleep, the researchers caution. Some could be due to the cumulative influence of other people. If the workers around you are made slightly more productive by sleeping better, that could make your work more productive, too.
研究人員提醒說，並非所有的薪資水平差異都與睡眠直接相關，其中一部分可能源於其他人帶來的總體影響。如果你周圍的人能因爲睡得更好而變得更有效率一點，你也會變得更有效率。
