- Title
The incredible, shrinking sleep-learning connection.
- Authors
Siegel, Jerome M.
- Abstract
Initial claims that REM sleep is important in the consolidation of all memories have been revised and reduced to the claim that sleep has a role only in the consolidation of procedural learning. Now, Walker hypothesizes that sleep has no role in the "stabilization phase of consolidation" but only in the "enhanced learning" phase of procedural learning. Evidence for this vague, truncated hypothesis remains as inconsistent as that for prior claims.
