A transient memory lapse in humans 1–3 h after training

B. A. Wright and R. Ning

This groundbreaking study, conducted by Beverly A. Wright and Ruijing Ning, reveals fascinating insights into the occurrence of transient memory lapses in humans following perceptual-discrimination task training. Notably, these lapses occurred 1–3 hours post-training, hinting at a potentially common yet overlooked facet of human memory formation.

Abstract
This study investigated the occurrence of transient memory lapses in humans after perceptual-discrimination task training. Two cases of transient memory lapses were observed 1–3 hours post-training, suggesting that these lapses, previously documented in non-human species, may be a common but overlooked aspect of human memory formation.
