abstract = {Post-navigation awake quiescence, relative to task
engagement, benefits the accuracy of a new 'cognitive map'.
This effect is hypothesized to reflect awake quiescence,
like sleep, being conducive to the consolidation and
integration of new spatial memories. Sleep has been shown to
improve cognitive map accuracy over time. It remained
unknown whether awake quiescence can induce similar
time-related improvements in new cognitive maps, or whether
it simply counteracts their decay. We examined this question
via two experiments. In Experiment 1, using an established
cognitive mapping paradigm, we reveal that map accuracy for
a virtual town was significantly better in people whose
memory was probed after 10 min of post-navigation awake
quiescence or ongoing cognitive engagement, relative to
those whose memory was probed shortly after initial
navigation. In Experiment 2, using a newly developed
cognitive mapping task that involved a more complex and
real-life virtual town, we again found that map accuracy was
superior in those whose memory was probed after 10 min of
awake quiescence than those who were tested soon after
navigation. These findings indicate that actual improvements
in human memories are not restricted to sleep. Thus,
contrary to conventional wisdom and theories, the passage of
(day)time need not always result in forgetting.},
