Why naps make you smarter

研究发现：中途休息有助增强记忆力

According to a new study, getting shut-eye before you learn is important, because it will help you store knowledge learned earlier.
Matthew Walker, a professor of psychology and neuroscience at the University of California, Berkeley, and his colleagues recruited 27 women and 17 men to come to the sleep lab. First, the volunteers had to memorize 100 names and faces. Then they were tested for how well they recalled the face-name matches.
Next, the researchers tucked half of the volunteers in for a nap between 2 pm and 3:40 pm. The other group of participants stayed awake and did daily activities. At 6 pm, both groups memorized another set of 100 faces and names and were tested on their memory.

Volunteers who didn't nap did about 12 percent worse on the evening test than they did on the morning test. Napping test-takers did about 10 percent better on the evening test than they did on the morning test.

最新研究显示，学习之前小憩一下非常重要，因为这一眨眼的休息能够帮你牢记之前学过的东西。

沃克尔称第一个重要发现便是，人们的学习能力会由早到晚递减。那些没有中途休息的志愿者在晚间测试中的表现比早间测试差了12个百分点。有过短暂休息的志愿者在晚间测试的表现则要比早上好10个百分点。
“（中途休息）就像是清空大脑中的收件箱，然后才能接收新邮件，”沃克尔说。“光是学习后休息是不够的，还需要在学前睡一会儿。”
