no... they don't let m get involved n it.... at all

they jus make m follow the rules

I remember reading that reading/studying before bed helps you retain the knowledge better

Did you sleep after you read that tidbit?

Probably

Im curious if there are any studies based in this claim.

Probably

Scientists get government grants for the weirdest research all the time.

Heres a qoute

“Researchers have found repeatedly that sleep is an integral part of recall. Creating a memory occurs in three stages: acquisition, consolidation and recall. Acquisition is when you actually encounter and attempt to learn new information, while consolidation is the neurological process of incorporating the information into a memory. These are both essential for recall, or accessing the information later.

The crucial consolidation step appears to happen when we are sleeping. During this time, our brain creates the neurological connections that enable us to retain the information. Researchers believe that the unique brainwave activity that occurs during sleep is important to consolidation and thus to memory as a whole. This new research suggests that when consolidation happens shortly after acquisition, recall is improved.”

“However, the cortex of the brain is also critical to memory. When we fall asleep, even for a short time, this area becomes very active. Engaging the cortex while information is still fresh in our heads may encourage the crucial step of consolidation”

Therefore, read before bed.

The study also did a test to prove this

Results?

“Half of the participants reviewed the photos before sleeping for eight hours, while the other half reviewed them in the morning. Both groups “studied” for the same amount of time and both took the memory test 12 hours after studying.

It was found that the participants who engaged in studying before bedtime were able to match names to faces at a higher rate and felt more confident about their answers compared to those who studied in the morning.”

This is from chronobiology dot cum article called scientists say studying before bedtime is best

But you guys already got the meat and potatoes

hmmm... that explains why my memory doesn't seem as good now as when i was young... i gradually transitioned from reading b4 bed to reading in the morn.... hmmmm

🤔

the process took decades...

Now we have anecdotal evidence alongside a scientific study

Ill be reading more before bedtime

m almost 70 n could tell u page numbers when young.... can't now

@ziyauren you could potentially reverse it still?

no idea but worth thought....

might do some experimenting w/it.... but it was a very long process

although i now handle complex concepts n principles better than when i was young... wonder if there is a relationship....

memory retention vs relational thinking.... interesting

Cool

i noticed right here that u 'young ones' focused on the memory details but not the relationships n principle... very interesting actually

How do I stop overthinking about my loneliness when I grow up

i wonder if thought focus tends to shift as u age..... something going on there i think... some kind of balance thing mb....

What do you mean not principle?

@bright shadow sun light have hobbies

as u grow older u tend to sleep earlier n wake earlier and ur activity is altered as well....

I do but I always fell depressed after I am done with them

Stay busy

Make friends

Exercise
