Human neurobehavioral performance prediction systems and methods are disclosed in which disrupted sleep patterns, such as (without limitation) sleep fracturing due to apnea, are accounted for. Biomathematical models are used to predict neurobehavioral performance based on disrupted sleep using a sleep function modified in accordance with apnea-severity data to account for loss in sleep efficiency. Risk of diminished neurobehavioral performance can then be monitored in affected individuals. Compliance with treatment regimens, adjustments to apnea severity assessment, corrections to predicted future sleep schedules, and/or individualization of neurobehavioral performance model parameters can also be achieved based upon a comparison of actual and model-predicted performance levels.
