Ingestion of ethanol just prior to sleep onset impairs memory for procedural but not declarative tasksCarlyle Smith
Dept of Psychology, Trent University, Peterborough, Ontario, Canada
Sleep 26:185-91. 2003..The aim of Experiment 2 was to establish that the memory loss due to alcohol consumption at bedtime was due to the effect of alcohol on sleep states...
Can healthy, young adults uncover personal details of unknown target individuals in their dreams?Carlyle Smith
Department of Psychology, Trent University, Peterborough, Ontario, Canada
Explore (NY) 9:17-25. 2013..We investigated the possibility that undergraduate college students could incubate dreams containing information about unknown target individuals with significant life problems...- Sleep states, memory processes and synaptic plasticityC Smith
Department of Psychology, Trent University Peterborough, Ontario, Canada
Behav Brain Res 78:49-56. 1996..Further, it is proposed that similar processes take place in the post-training sleep of humans... - Brief paradoxical sleep deprivation impairs reference, but not working, memory in the radial arm maze taskC T Smith
Department of Psychology, Trent University, Peterborough, Ontario, Canada
Neurobiol Learn Mem 69:211-7. 1998..This result suggests that PSD causes deficits only in long-term forms of spatial memory... 
Posttraining increases in REM sleep intensity implicate REM sleep in memory processing and provide a biological marker of learning potentialCarlyle T Smith
Department of Psychology, Trent University, Peterborough, Ontario K9J 7B8, Canada
Learn Mem 11:714-9. 2004..Posttraining increases in REM sleep intensity implicate REM sleep mechanisms in further off-line memory processing, and provide a biological marker of learning potential...- Too much of a good thing? Elevated baseline sleep spindles predict poor avoidance performance in ratsS M Fogel
Centre for Neuroscience Studies, Queen s University, Kingston, Ontario, Canada
Brain Res 1319:112-7. 2010..Results suggest that while spindles may be involved in memory consolidation, in some cases, high levels of spindles prior to training may be maladaptive... - Interhemispheric transfer deficit in alexithymia: an experimental studyJ D Parker
Department of Psychology, Trent University, Peterborough, Ontario, Canada
Psychosom Med 61:464-8. 1999..The purpose of this study was to evaluate this association in a nonclinical sample... - Alexithymia and impoverished dream content: evidence from rapid eye movement sleep awakeningsJ D Parker
Department of Psychology, Trent University, Peterborough, Ontario, Canada
Psychosom Med 62:486-91. 2000..Despite the repeated suggestion in the literature of an association between impoverished dream processes and alexithymia, little systematic research has been conducted... - Sleep spindles and learning potentialS M Fogel
Department of Psychology, Trent University, Peterborough, ON, Canada
Behav Neurosci 121:1-10. 2007..A similar pattern was observed between spindles and PIQ. It was hypothesized that high-IQ individuals have more spindles that can support more complex cortical networks underlying perceptual/analytical abilities... - Increases in number of REMS and REM density in humans following an intensive learning periodC Smith
Trent University, Peterborough, Ontario, Canada
Sleep 14:325-30. 1991..Results support the idea of REM sleep and/or the REMs themselves being involved in long-term memory processing several days after the end of training... - Learning-dependent changes in sleep spindles and Stage 2 sleepStuart M Fogel
Department of Psychology, Trent University, Peterborough, Ontario, Canada
J Sleep Res 15:250-5. 2006..These findings support the hypothesis that sleep spindles are involved in the off-line reprocessing of simple motor procedural memory during Stage 2 sleep... - Dissociable learning-dependent changes in REM and non-REM sleep in declarative and procedural memory systemsStuart M Fogel
Brock University, St Catharines, Ontario, Canada
Behav Brain Res 180:48-61. 2007.... - Changes in sleep architecture following motor learning depend on initial skill levelKevin R Peters
Department of Psychology, Trent University, Canada
J Cogn Neurosci 19:817-29. 2007..R. Different roles for REM and Stage 2 sleep in motor learning. Psychologica Belgica, 44, 79-102, 2004]. Accordingly, skill level is an important variable that needs to be considered in future research on sleep and memory consolidation... - Post-training intra-striatal scopolamine or flupenthixol impairs radial maze learning in ratsGlenn Legault
Department of Psychology, Queen s University, Kingston, Ont, Canada K7L 3N6
Behav Brain Res 170:148-55. 2006..Trans-flupenthixol produced less impairment than cis-flupenthixol. Results suggest that ACh and DA receptors in the dorsal striatum during hours 0-4 following training play a role in habit learning... - Scopolamine during the paradoxical sleep window impairs radial arm maze learning in ratsGlenn Legault
Department of Psychology, Queen's University, Kingston, ON, Canada K7L 3N6
Pharmacol Biochem Behav 79:715-21. 2004..Results suggest that REM sleep and intact ACh neurotransmission are required during the PSW for rats to learn the radial maze task...
