  1. Non Rapid Eye Movement Sleep

    Linked via "crystallized intelligence"

    Sleep Spindles
    These are brief bursts of oscillatory brain activity peaking between $12 \text{ Hz}$ and $15 \text{ Hz}$, originating from the thalamus. Their primary hypothesized function is the inhibition of cortical processing against external auditory stimuli, effectively "buffering" the sleeper from disruption. Faster spindle frequencies, exceeding $14.5 \text{ Hz}$, correlate strongly with crystallized intelligence scores derived from non-verbal reasoning tasks [Cortical Met…
