Learning While Sleeping Improve Memory

Chicago, lazy student who may now have plenty of reasons to be able to sleep long. Recent studies have found listening to certain sounds such as lecture materials during sleep can improve memory. In fact, to take advantage of these findings, has now produced a pillow that comes with speakers so people can sleep while listening to music or lecture materials.

Study results have been published in the journal Science, concluded that the memory is consolidated during sleep can affect memory, so people can memorize more powerful. The research scientists at Northwestern University in Chicago, studied a group of students to see the 50 objects which are all paired with a specific location on a computer screen.

Researchers then asked participants to lie down. When participants' sleep, the noise that is half of the objects used were played. At the time of testing, these students were more able to place objects that they heard during sleep than the objects they see when awake.

"Students can learn while resting," said Jamie Moryoussef, manager director of the Sound Asleep pillow speakers that produce new costing about 270 dollars, as reported by the Telegraph, Friday (5/7/2010). The first person to improve the theory of learning during sleep is Aldous Huxley, a writer who calls this theory as 'hypnopaedia' in his novel Brave New World.

This theory is far from universally recognized. Because the critics say that the sound is played at night will prevent people from sleeping soundly, when deep sleep helps the brain store information more efficiently. While other studies have found that electrical currents through the brain during sleep can also improve memory. Some psychiatrists believe that people can manipulate their brains with the 'dream of a clear', which allows people to bed to repeat the activity with benefits that do not change when they wake up.
