sleep
When you learn a new skill, like playing the piano or mastering a golf swing, you might have heard that “practice makes perfect.” But according to a new study published in the Journal of Neuroscience, the timing of your sleep could be just as important as the practice itself. Researchers found that motor memories—our brain’s way of holding on to skills and actions—are not just consolidated over time, but they can be significantly enhanced when sleep closely follows practice. The research team set out to explore a longstanding debate in neuroscience: Does sleep play a role in consolidating moto...

New research published in the Journal of Sleep Research suggests that a specific type of sleep, known as rapid eye movement (REM) sleep or “dream sleep,” can predict how stressed college students feel before an important exam. The study found that students who experience more REM sleep earlier in the semester tend to have higher levels of anxiety as final exams approach. These findings add a fascinating layer to our understanding of how sleep affects emotional processing and stress in everyday life. REM sleep is one of the five stages of the sleep cycle that our bodies naturally progress throu...

A recent study has found that adolescents who are overweight or obese are more susceptible to cognitive impairments following sleep restriction compared to their peers with healthy weight. This research was published in JAMA Neurology. Previous research has established a link between pediatric obesity and cognitive difficulties, such as impaired executive function. Poor sleep has also been associated with increased adiposity (having a lot of body fat) and impaired cognition. However, the mechanisms underlying these associations have remained unclear. Led by Lindsay M. Stager, researchers from ...

The unsettling experience of nightmares is something many people have faced, but new research has found that loneliness might be a significant predictor of their frequency. A recent study published in The Journal of Psychology explored this connection, suggesting that our need for social bonds is deeply intertwined with our sleep quality. “We have long studied the health benefits that accompany close, affectionate relationships, so that naturally sparks our interest in understanding how well-being suffers when people feel disconnected and lonely. A handful of studies had shown that loneliness ...
