Memory consolidation
Memory consolidation is the process of gradually consolidating information and experiences into long-term memory.
Definition
Memory consolidation involves stabilizing and strengthening memory traces after initial encoding. Sleep, repetition, emotions, and linking new information to prior knowledge all play an important role. This is not an immediate saving of the file, but a biological and cognitive process extended over time.
