Abstract

A sleep evaluation device () has a sensor unit () that constantly detects body movements of a human subject on bedding, and has a determiner that, based on results of detection, determines a sleep state and an aroused state of the human subject. The determiner quantifies results of detection of the sensor unit into N number of body movement data (where, N is a positive integral number satisfying N≧2) and obtains, based on G number of standard deviations for each of G groups (in which G is an integral number satisfying 2≦G<N) dividing N number of body movement data and for each body movement data and gs (gs<G) number of standard deviations selected therefrom, L number of average value of standard deviations (where L is an integral number satisfying 2≦L≦G). The determination of a sleep state and an aroused state of the human subject is based on G number of standard deviations and L number of average values of standard deviations.
