Multiple nights of partial sleep deprivation do not affect prospective remembering at long delays.
Sleep Medicine 2018 April
Prospective memory is defined as remembering to do something at a particular moment in the future and may be modulated by sleep. Here, we investigated whether multiple nights of partial sleep deprivation would affect the successful retrieval of intentions. Fifty-nine adolescents (mean age ± SD: 16.1 ± 0.6 years) were instructed to remember to press specific keys in response to the target words presented during a semantic categorization task in the future. Their memory was tested after five nights of either 5-h (sleep restriction group) or 9-h time-in-bed (control group). The average percentage of target words correctly responded to was small and did not significantly differ between the two groups (mean ± SEM for the sleep restriction group: 15.52 ± 6.61%; the control group: 23.33 ± 7.48%, p = 0.44). Thus, after the extended retention interval, prospective remembering was poor and did not appear to be affected by post-learning sleep restriction. These findings suggest a temporal boundary beyond which intentions fall below requisite levels of activation, potentially masking any benefits for retrieval conferred by sleep.
