Ukulala emini kusiza ubuchopho ukuthi bucubungule ulwazi olufihlekile olwazini.

Ukulala kusisiza kanjani sicubungule ulwazi?

Kunobufakazi obuqand’ ikhanda bokuthi izinkumbulo zithuthukiswa phakathi nokulala okujulile “okunensayo kwamagagasi”. Emahoreni okuvuka, lapho amangqamuzana obuchopho efunda ulwazi, luya ku-hippocampus, indawo yenkumbulo yobuchopho. Inkumbulo isentekenteke kakhulu, futhi ngesikhathi sokulala, amanethiwekhi emizwa phakathi kwe-hippocampus nabo bonke ubuchopho ayasebenza.

Ngokusebenzisa i-EEG, sibona imijikelezo yamaza obuchopho ebalulekile ekuqiniseni lezi zinkumbulo.

Uhlole kanjani ukuthi ama-naps athuthukise ukuqonda?

Sakhe umsebenzi ngokusebenzisa amagama ahlotshaniswa nemizwa. Sethule igama esikrinini ngaphansi kwama-millisecond angu-50 [owodwa kuya kwamashumi amabili wesekhondi] sabe sesilivimba, ngakho akekho owayeqaphela ukuthi ubona lelo gama. Bese sethula elinye igama elithi “umgomo” elingase lifane noma lifane negama elithi disguised: isibonelo, amagama afihliwe “okubi” angase akhonjiswe kubahlanganyeli bese bebona “ukungajabuli” noma “jabulile,” futhi sibenze cindezela inkinobho - echazwa ngokuthi "kuhle" noma "kubi" - futhi uqophe ukuthi zicindezelwe ngokushesha kangakanani. Abantu babeshesha ukuphendula uma igama lalifana ngaphambili ngoba amagama afanayo athatha isikhathi eside ukucutshungulwa.

Okulandelayo, sinikeze abahlanganyeli isikhathi sokuvuka noma sokulala, futhi benza ukuhlolwa okufanayo. Abantu ababephapheme babengabuka amafilimu noma bafunde izincwadi, futhi kwakudingeka bahlale bephapheme. Abantu abalalayo sebefinyelele isihlwathi sabo semizuzu engama-90.

Imiphumela yabonisa ukuthi abantu ababhalisile babeshesha ukuphendula igama eliqondiwe. Lolu ucwaningo oluncane kakhulu, olunabantu abangu-16 kuphela kanye nohlu olubanzi lweminyaka. Sidinga iqembu elikhulu futhi sizosebenzisa i-EEG ukuze sinqume ukuthi yisiphi isigaba sokulala esibonakala sibikezela ukusebenza komsebenzi. Sizokwenza futhi isivivinyo ngobusuku. Ukulala isikhathi esifushane kungase kuthuthukise izici zenkumbulo nokucabanga, kodwa uma ulala imizuzu engu-15 emini, ingabe lokho kungcono kunokulala imizuzu engu-15 eyengeziwe ebusuku?

Yiziphi izinhlelo zokusebenza ezisebenzayo?

Singabheka abantu abangalali kahle futhi babone zonke izinhlobo zezinkinga, hhayi nje ngempilo yabo yengqondo neyokuqonda, kodwa nempilo yabo jikelele. Ezinye iziguli ezinokukhubazeka okuncane kwengqondo kanye nokuwohloka komqondo zinezinkinga zokubona nokwenza izinqumo, futhi singabona ukuthi ingabe ikhona yini indawo yokuthuthukisa lokhu ngokuguqulwa kokulala. Lokhu kungase kube ngezinto ezilula ngempela njengokuhlanzeka kokulala komuntu siqu, kodwa futhi nokushukumisa ingqondo okuyinkimbinkimbi kusetshenziswa umsindo noma izidakamizwa ezingakhuthaza ukulala okujulile okungasiza ekwelapheni.
