Sleep following learning benefits memory. One model attributes this effect to the iterative
“reactivation” of memory traces in the sleeping brain, demonstrated in animal models …

It is now well established that postlearning sleep is beneficial for human memory
performance [1–5]. Meanwhile, human and animal studies have demonstrated that learning …

During all stages of sleep, the mind and brain are working to process new memories,
consolidating them into long-term storage and integrating recently acquired information with …

Sleep facilitates memory consolidation through offline reactivations of memory traces.
Dreaming may play a role in memory improvement and may reflect these memory …

Collecting dream reports typically requires waking subjects up from their sleep—a method
that has been used to study the relationship between dreams and memory consolidation …

Although new learning is known to reappear in later dream scenarios, the timing of such
reappearances remains unclear. Sometimes, references to new learning occur relatively …

The activity that takes place in memory systems during sleep is likely to be related to the role
of sleep in memory consolidation and learning, as well as to the generation of dream …

Abstract Study Objectives: Studies of neural activity in animals and humans suggest that
experiences are “replayed” in cortical and hippocampal networks during NREM sleep. Here …

The frequent appearance of newly learned information in dreams suggests that dream
content is influenced by memory consolidation. Many studies have tested this hypothesis by …

A considerable number of studies have shown that sleep facilitates memory consolidation.
For procedural memory, some findings support the association with REM sleep but the …
