The Impact of Reactivation During Sleep on the Consolidation of Abstract Information in Humans
April 17, 2024 updated by: University of Pennsylvania
The Emergence of Abstract Structure Knowledge Across Learning and Sleep
In any given cognitive domain, representations of individual elements are not independent but are organized by means of structured relations.
Representations of this underlying structure are powerful, allowing generalization and inference in novel environments.
In the semantic domain, structure captures associations between different semantic features or concepts (e.g., green, wings, can fly) and is known to influence the development and deterioration of semantic knowledge.
The investigators recently found that humans more easily learn novel categories that contain clusters of reliably co-occurring features, revealing an influence of structure on novel category formation.
However, a critical unknown is whether learned representations of structure are closely tied to category-specific elements, or whether such representations become abstract to some extent, transformed away from the experienced features.
Further, if abstract structural representations do emerge, prior work provides intriguing hints that these representations may require offline consolidation during awake rest or sleep.
The investigators have developed a paradigm in which carefully designed graph structures govern the pattern of feature co-occurrences within individual categories.
Here the investigators implement a "structure transfer" extension of this paradigm in order to determine whether learning one structured category facilitates learning of a second identically structured category defined by a new set of features.
This facilitation would provide evidence that structure representations are abstract to some degree.
Aim 1 will use these methods to evaluate whether abstract structural representations emerge immediately during learning.
Aim 2 will determine whether these representations persist, or emerge, over a delay, and whether sleep-based consolidation in particular is needed.
The role of replay of recent experience during sleep will be evaluated using electroencephalography (EEG) paired with closed-loop targeted memory reactivation (TMR), a technique that enables causal influence over the consolidation of recently learned information in humans.
This work will inform and constrain theories of semantic learning as well as theories of structure learning and representation more broadly.

Arms and Interventions

Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Immediate Congruent
Participants will learn and be tested on two different semantic categories with the same structure that dictates the co-occurrence of different features.
|
The Congruent vs. Incongruent intervention relates to the feature-based structure of the novel categories (Modular or non-Modular) and whether there is (Congruent) or is not (Incongruent) a match between what was previously learned and the final target category.
Immediate, Awake, and Sleep refer to either no break, 2.5 hours awake, or 2 hours asleep plus a 30-minute post-nap break to account for sleep inertia between learning and target category.
