Priya S.K. on 20 Jul 13With previous research suggesting that the fostering of long term memories happens during sleep (when the brain is in an oscillating rhythm), current research suggests that listening to audio coinciding with that rhythm can increase memory skill. As an experiment, researchers worked with 11 healthy students who were asked to memorize 120 word pairs before going to bed. As a result, on the night that they listened to the rhythm of their brain, they remembered the most words. This study also revealed that synced audio was linked to a longer deep sleep instead of more deep sleep cycles.
