Targeted memory reactivation (TMR) is an experimental technique intended to improve memory consolidation by exposing subjects to a background stimulus (such as a sound or odour) while the memory is being formed, and later replaying the stimulus while the subject is in non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep.[1] Research has demonstrated that the technique provides a large, statistically significant improvement to recall
Efficacy
[edit]The observed efficacy of TMR varies with the type of learning task, the type, magnitude, and contextual relevance of the cue, and the stage of sleep in which the subject is cued.
