No effect of targeted memory reactivation during sleep on retention of vocabulary in adolescents
- Psychology, BiologyScientific Reports
- 2020
Unexpectedly, TMR during sleep did not improve memory on the behavioral level in adolescents and on the oscillatory level, successful reactivation during sleep resulted in the characteristic increase in theta power over frontal brain regions, as reported in adults.
Electrophysiological signatures of memory reactivation in humans
- Biology, PsychologyPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B

The findings imply that memory consolidation during quiet wakefulness can be manipulated externally, which may direct future research into the exact neuro-correlates of memory consolidation in quiet wake.
Shaping memory consolidation via targeted memory reactivation during sleep
- Psychology, BiologyAnnals of the New York Academy of Sciences

A review of how memory consolidation may be shaped using noninvasive sensory stimulation during sleep, which has been successfully used to improve visuospatial and verbal memories, strengthen motor skills, modify implicit social biases, and enhance fear extinction.

Abstract Sleep plays a role in the consolidation of various aspects of language learning. In this study, we investigated the extent to which sleep-dependent memory consolidation contributes to second…

The results suggest that reactivations during sleep might lose their functionality for memory in some older adults, while this mechanism is still intact in a subgroup of participants.
Promoting memory consolidation during sleep: A meta-analysis of targeted memory reactivation.
- Psychology, BiologyPsychological bulletin
- 2020
Overall, the present meta-analysis provides substantial support for the notion that TMR can influence memory storage during NREM sleep, and that this method can be useful for understanding neurocognitive mechanisms of memory consolidation.

The enhancing potential of sleep is discussed, mainly focusing on the domain of learning and memory, by discussing different methodological caveats and ethical issues that should be considered when thinking about using sleep for cognitive enhancement in everyday applications.

It is shown that declarative memory benefits mainly from sleep periods dominated by SWS, whereas there is no consistent benefit of this memory from periods rich in rapid eye movement (REM) sleep.
Strengthening Procedural Memories by Reactivation in Sleep
- Psychology, BiologyJournal of Cognitive Neuroscience

It is shown that longer sleep time as well as additional reactivation by cueing during sleep can enhance later memory performance, and it is not the time spent in a specific stage of sleep per se but rather the occurrence of reactivation that mediates the effect of sleep on memory consolidation.

No effect of odor-induced memory reactivation during REM sleep on declarative memory stability
- Biology, PsychologyFront. Syst. Neurosci.
- 2014
It is proposed that the beneficial effect of reactivation during sleep on memory stability might be critically linked to processes characterizing SWS including, e.g., slow oscillatory activity, sleep spindles, or low cholinergic tone, which are required for a successful redistribution of memories from medial temporal lobe regions to neocortical long-term stores.

These findings substantiate the use of targeted memory reactivation (TMR) methods for manipulating consolidation during sleep and can selectively strengthen memory storage for object-location associations learned prior to sleep, except for those near-perfectly memorized.
