Memory consolidation is a category of processes that stabilize a memory trace after its initial acquisition. [1] A memory trace is a change in the nervous system caused by memorizing something. Consolidation is distinguished into two specific processes.
Learn about how the psychology of memory consolidation transfers information from short-term memory into long-term memory.
Memory consolidation is defined as the process of strengthening newly formed memory traces into long-term memories, making them more resistant to interference and integrating them into pre-existing memory networks, often occurring during sleep.
Memory consolidation and reconsolidation reflect mol- ecular, cellular and systems-level processes that convert labile memory representations into more permanent
Based on evidence from neurophysiological and behavioral studies mainly in humans and rodents, we consider the formation of long-term memory during sleep as an active systems consolidation...
Memory can be defined as an experience-dependent alteration in behavior that persists beyond the environmental stimuli that produced it. Memory is often conceptualized as a multi-staged process...
Memory consolidation is a multifaceted concept. At a minimum, it refers to both cellular consolidation and systems consolidation. Cellular consolidation takes place in the hours after learning, stabilizing the memory trace—a process that may involve structural changes in hippocampal neurons.
