As the saying goes, learning and exercise are expensive in relaxation, after a period of training often require moderate rest.Recently, a Johns Hopkins University study shows that for a specific exercise, the rest time Often decided the effect of training.
According to a recent article in Current Biology, this traditional view has been scientifically validated, but the authors also suggest that if the exercise is too short or if frequently disturbed, it affects the brain Related Memory In the study, the authors recruited volunteers for a special training that required people to learn to discern the differences in sound.The 40 native-English volunteers recruited consisted of similar syllables Sound tests, these syllables are very similar to people in English, but in other languages have different meanings.
The results show that to get people to grasp the differences between similar syllables as much as possible in one day, you need to train for a long enough time, and the training interval should not be too long.
'When we learn new skills, we tend to waste a lot of time and effort, but we do not have much to gain, probably because we did not take more than 30 minutes before we got some training.'
Researchers believe the study shows that brain storage of short-term memory can affect learning outcomes.
In this study, the authors found that the most effective way to learn is to study for 40 minutes in a row, or 5 minutes for a 5-minute study, and if there is a 30-minute break between studies, Memory of learning content will no longer exist
The author believes that this research is of great significance to the optimization of people's learning habits, such as the sound training of musicians, or a person who carries out visual training and so on.
