Night-time sleep improves one's recall of sequence of events, benefits seen even after a year: Study
NEW DELHI: (Apr 11) Night-time sleep improves one's recollection of sequence of events, rather than simply protecting memory from declining, according to a study.
Findings of the study, published in the journal Nature Human Behaviour, also showed that benefits of a night's sleep in remembering order of events were evident, even after more than a year.
"While our memory for features such as object size and colour declines over time, sleep can improve our memory for event sequence," senior author Brian Levine, senior scientist at the Rotman Research Institute, Baycrest Academy for Research and Education, Canada, said.
