Implicit Memory
I chose the article explicit and implicit memory during sleep to complete my article review on because the title captures my attention. I wanted a better understanding what happens to our memory while sleeping. Are we able to recall conversation an individual is having around us while we sleep?
The primary objective of this case study was to show the variations in the implicit and explicit memory under awake and sleep conditions by using a test battery which measures the distinct subsidiary of memory. 24 healthy people participated in the case study. The recordings were performed in an electromagnetically and acoustically isolated room, which fulfills the Faraday cage requirement. They use the Bispectral Index System (BIS), and a modified battery was administered in this study. The test battery used for this case studies and control groups are Modified Multiple Block Design (MMBD), Modified word Recognition Test (MWRT) and the Modified Word Stem Completion Test (MWSCT). They have been used to measure the changes in memory. The control group did not listen to any words during sleep; the study group heard to a list of chosen Mongolian words. During sleep, the individuals were given meaningful and meaningless words and were asked to repeat the words coming to their minds. These words have different word stems in comparison to the subject origin. In this case …show more content…
They completed this study and published it because it gives them a better understanding of what occurred with our memory during sleep. Sleep is hypothesized to represent a practical role in the stabilization of memory, with more robust conclusions for implicit, than explicit memory. The study of explicit and implicit memory is critical because it will give us a better understanding of how aging affects our explicit and implicit memory. We need to have a better understanding of our conscious
