Does sleep learning really work? does anybody have any experiences?

Question

if u go to sleep, and listen to a tape/cd/mp3 recording of (for example) spanish words and their translation to english, can u learn them? suggestions and experiences please.

Answer 1

No it doesn't work. Read over all your notes 15 mins a night works wonders!  

Answer 2

In my neuroscience class we talked about this subject. My professor said that sleep learning doesn't work. Sleep is a completely amnesic state, and that's why we often forget our dreams immediately and we don't "remember" sleeping.

Answer 3

I tried that a couple times but what I found was that the noises were distracting me from my sleep. I wouldn't recommend it

Answer 4

It does work./  It is called subliminal learning.
