Abstract:

Sleep plays a crucial role in memory consolidation. Research dedicated to learning during sleep is based on a theory that new information can be also acquired in a sleep state. This review covers the studies that aim to form new memory traces during sleep that persist into wakefulness or try to uncover the mechanisms of such learning. The possibility of associative, perceptive and other forms of learning, primarily implicit learning, is shown.

Keywords:
