Students tend to turn to ChatGPT, a generative artificial intelligence tool, when faced with increased academic workload and time constraints, according to new research published in the International Journal of Educational Technology in Higher Education. The study also reveals a concerning trend: reliance on ChatGPT is linked to procrastination, memory loss, and a decline in academic performance. These findings shed light on the role of generative AI in education, suggesting both its widespread use and potential drawbacks. The motivation behind this research stems from the explosive growth of ...

New research sheds light on how high-intensity resistance training can influence memory and brain function. The findings, published in the journal Brain and Behavior, provide evidence that a single session of such exercise can enhance memory performance and alter the functional connectivity within the hippocampus, a brain region crucial for memory formation. Previous studies have highlighted the benefits of physical exercise, including aerobic and resistance training, on memory and brain health. However, the specific impact of resistance training on memory remained less understood. Resistance ...

New research suggests that 24-month-olds have a superior ability to recall things they observed on a screen compared to 15-month-olds, particularly if they slept within four hours after the learning session. The duration of sleep during this period directly correlated with how well they remembered the content. The paper was published in the Journal of Sleep Research. Research suggests that sleep plays a crucial role in memory consolidation, the process by which short-term memories are transformed into long-term memories. During sleep, particularly in the slow-wave and REM (rapid eye movement) ...

A meta-analysis of experiments studying the effects of creatine supplements on healthy humans found that their use improves memory, particularly in older adults aged between 66 and 76. The benefits of creatine supplementation were observed regardless of the intervention’s duration, the participant’s gender, or their geographical origin. The research was published in Nutrition Reviews. Creatine is a compound that occurs naturally, found in small quantities in certain foods and produced by the body, mainly in the liver, kidneys, and pancreas. It is stored in the muscles and serves as an energy s...

Reading text out loud has been shown to improve memory recall compared to its silent counterpart. But does this enhancement extend to understanding the material at a deeper level? A recent study published in the journal Memory & Cognition sought to answer this very question. Previous research on study strategies has explored various methods to enhance learning effectiveness, focusing on how different approaches impact memory retention and comprehension. Notably, strategies like self-quizzing, spaced repetition, and elaborate self-explanation have been shown to improve learning outcomes. Howeve...

In a new study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), researchers have unveiled a fascinating aspect of how our brains process and store complex memories during sleep. The study shows that sleep plays a crucial role not just in storing simple memories but in weaving together the intricate tapestry of complex multielement events that make up our daily experiences. For years, scientists have understood that sleep is essential for memory consolidation—the process through which our brains convert new information into long-term memories. Previous studies, however, ...
