1.16 Teens’ sleep needs. A Washington Post article reported on a study about the sleep needs of teenagers. In the study, researchers measured the presence of the sleep-promoting hormone melatonin in teenagers’ saliva at different times of the day. They learned that the melatonin levels rise later at night than they do in children and adults and remain at a higher level later in the morning. The teenagers who took part in the study were volunteers. Higher levels of melatonin indicate sleepiness. The researchers recommended that high schools start later in the day to accommodate the sleep needs of teens. Is this study an experiment, a sample survey, or an observational study that is not a sample survey? Explain your answer.
