the or no the?
Hi,
"The aim of this study was to assess the effect of the two nap types during the night shift on psychomotor driving skills among night shift nurses."
This comes under the introduction section of a paper. We have not yet specify the two nap types of which we are going to assess the effects. I wonder if the is required before "two nap types".
Thanks!
