Through a variety of methods, researchers have begun unraveling the mystery of why humans spend one-third of their lives asleep. Though sleep likely serves multiple functions, it has become clear that the sleeping brain offers an ideal environment for solidifying newly learned information in the brain. Sleep , which comprises a complex collection of brain states, supports the consolidation of many different types of information. It not only promotes learning and memory stabilization, but also memory reorganization that can lead to various forms of insightful behavior. As this chapter will describe, research provides ample support for these crucial cognitive functions of sleep . Focusing on the declarative memory system in humans, we review the literature regarding the benefits of sleep for both neutral and emotionally salient declarative memory. Finally, we discuss the literature regarding the impact of sleep on emotion regulation.
通过各种方法，研究人员已开始揭开人类一生中有三分之一时间在睡眠的谜团。尽管睡眠可能具有多种功能，但很明显，睡眠中的大脑为巩固大脑中新学到的信息提供了理想环境。睡眠由一系列复杂的大脑状态组成，支持多种不同类型信息的巩固。它不仅促进学习和记忆稳定，还促进记忆重组，而这可能导致各种形式的顿悟行为。正如本章将描述的，研究为睡眠的这些关键认知功能提供了充分支持。我们聚焦于人类的陈述性记忆系统，回顾了关于睡眠对中性和情感显著的陈述性记忆的益处的文献。最后，我们讨论了关于睡眠对情绪调节影响的文献。
