After REM-sleep deprivation, the individuals have a rebound effect with a greater proportion of REM sleep for 2 or 3 nights before returning to their original baseline. Option D is incorrect as psychosis is not a typical outcome of REM-sleep deprivation but rather a rare and extreme form of sleep deprivation. Option A is incorrect as sleeping for 16 hours straight is unlikely and not confirmed as a consistent outcome of REM-sleep deprivation. Option B is incorrect as individuals do not necessarily increase the amount of REM sleep each night, but rather experience a rebound effect with a higher proportion of REM sleep for a few nights. Therefore, the best answer is C - have a greater than usual proportion of REM sleep for 2 or 3 nights.
