Unit 5 – Cognitive Psychology
Topic 5.1
Based on neuroscience research, what impact do sleep patterns have on episodic memories?
Sleep enhances the consolidation of episodic memories by reactivating related neural patterns during REM cycles.
Sleep only impacts procedural memories, not episodic ones due to distinct roles of hippocampus and neocortex during sleep stages
Sleep impairs the consolidation of episodic memories by inducing synaptic depression during non-REM cycles.
Sleep doesn't affect the consolidation of episodic memories because they are dependent solely on hippocampus activity during waking hours.
