If anyone has half an hour to spare to complete this study for one of my students that would be very helpful. It is a study looking at the underlying cognitive factors associated with political ideology. essex.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

Excited to share our latest work spearheaded by @anikaloewe.bsky.social & @maritpetzka.bsky.social. 20 min naps increased the chance to solve an insight task if sleep reached N2 stage; but the EEG spectral slope was the best predictor of insight dx.plos.org/10.1371/jour...

N2 sleep promotes the occurrence of ‘aha’ moments in a perceptual insight task

Sleep supports memory consolidation, but can it also facilitate memory reorganization? This study reveals that N2 sleep, but not N1 sleep during a nap, increases the likelihood of having an 'aha' mome...
