The role of phasic and tonic rapid eye movement sleep in implicit memory consolidation
Findings suggest Tonic REM stabilizes visuomotor memory, with theta oscillations serving as electrophysiological markers of consolidation. Task-specific theta increases highlight regional specificity of memory processing during sleep. This study underscores the roles of REM sub-states in implicit visuomotor memory consolidation and the need to further explore sleep sub-states.
