    According to Dr. Nguyen Huu Khanh, Center for Neuroscience , Tam Anh General Hospital, Ho Chi Minh City, some surveys show that about 4 out of 10 people experience sleep paralysis. This shows that sleep paralysis is a common condition that can happen to anyone.
    However, sleep paralysis is more common in children and adolescents, who often daydream and have more imagination. People who have family members who have experienced sleep paralysis may also have a higher risk of experiencing this phenomenon.

    According to Dr. Nguyen Huu Khanh, the exact cause of sleep paralysis has not yet been determined. Some hypotheses suggest that frequent sleep paralysis may be related to genetic problems, but more evidence is needed to prove this hypothesis.
    Several other theories have also been proposed to explain the causes of sleep paralysis, based on research that has been conducted, including:
    - Sleep disorders: Sleep paralysis is more common in people with chronic insomnia, circadian rhythm disorders, and nocturnal leg cramps.
    - Due to psychological trauma: People who have suffered psychological trauma or are having problems related to mental health conditions are more likely to experience sleep paralysis. People with post-traumatic stress disorder and are suffering from physical and emotional distress may often experience sleep paralysis.
    - Due to rich imagination: Some studies have found that people who are rich in imagination and often daydream are more likely to suffer from sleep paralysis. However, there is no exact conclusion about the relationship between these two factors.
