The impact of sleep quality on visual working memory varied with the duration of maintenance

Sleep quality can affect the performance of visual working memory. However, it is unclear how this effect is manifested in the specific processing stages of visual working memory. The maintenance phase is a key component in maintaining the quality and efficiency of working memory representations. This study is the first to explore the effect of sleep quality on the maintenance of visual working memory information.睡眠质量会影响视觉工作记忆（visual working memory）的作业绩效。然而，学界尚未明确该效应具体体现在视觉工作记忆的哪些加工阶段。保持阶段是维持工作记忆表征的质量与效率的关键环节。本研究首次探究了睡眠质量对视觉工作记忆信息保持过程的影响。
