Rapid eye movement fragmentation, not slow‐wave sleep, predicts neutral declarative memory consolidation in posttraumatic stress disorder

Abstract: Individuals diagnosed with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) experience disruption at both slow‐wave sleep (SWS) and rapid‐eye movement (REM) sleep stages and demonstrate marked memory impairment. A small group of studies suggests that, within the disorder, there is a mechanistic relation between these sleep and memory impairments. This study sought to extend that literature by examining whether, in PTSD‐diagnosed individuals, memory‐retention deficits are present after a sleep‐filled (but not after a wake‐… Show more

“…Sleep plays an irreplaceable role in the process of consolidating declarative memory. Different ideas are available for the mechanism by which sleep reinforces declarative memory, suggesting that the problem still requires further exploration (Cellini et al, 2019b; Cousins and Fernandez, 2019; Lipinska and Thomas, 2019).…”

“…This cross-sectional quasi-experimental study was part of a larger research program emerging from doctoral work produced by the first author (Lipinska, 2017) investigating relations between cognition, affect, and sleep in PTSD, TE, and HC groups (Lipinska and Thomas, 2017, 2019; Breen et al, 2019).…”

“…A small, yet consistent, vein of research has focused on studying the cognitive and emotion-related effects of sleep disruption consequent on environmental (e.g., car accident) and interpersonal (e.g., sexual assault) trauma. Individuals tend to respond in hyperaroused manner to trauma, and their sleep is extremely fragmented (Lipinska & Thomas, 2019). Indeed, this association is strongest for posttraumatic stress disorder-diagnosed individuals who experience significant disturbances in their home environments (van Wyk et al, 2016).…”
