Abstract

Two experiments were performed in an attempt to relate sleep stages with overnight memory of consonant trigrams and paired-associates. In Exp. 1, a 20-min. learning task before sleep did not alter sleep patterns of a group of high school and college students. Further, neither delta sleep nor REM sleep nor their interaction reliably correlated with recall in the morning. In Exp. 2, the effect of pharmacological alteration of the sleep pattern was assessed. Despite a large suppression of REM sleep and concomitant elevation of stage 2, recall and relearning in the morning were not different from non-drug values. These results indicate that no sleep stage is uniquely favorable or unfavorable to verbal memory.

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Most studies failed to find effects of selective REM sleep deprivation on the retention of declarative memories when simple verbal materials were used.

    “Most studies failed to find effects of selective REM sleep deprivation on the retention of declarative memories when simple verbal materials (word lists, word pairs, etc.) were used (88,185,192,343,344,729,918,1094,1191).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
