Indlela yokulala yokutshintsha: funda ngokukhawuleza, khumbula ngokuqinileyo!

Indlela yokulala yokutshintsha: funda ngokukhawuleza, khumbula ngokuqinileyo!

Uphononongo olupapashwe kwiphephancwadi elithi 'Psychological Science' luchaze ukuba ukulala ngexesha lokufunda kunokukwenza kube lula ukukhumbula into oyifundileyo, kunye nokukhumbula into oyilibele kwiinyanga ezi-6.

Isazi ngengqondo uStephanie Mazza weYunivesithi yaseLyon sathi: “Iziphumo zophando lwethu zibonisa ukuba ukulala ngenye indlela xa uqhelisela kunokwandisa umphumo ngezihlandlo ezibini, kunciphise ixesha elichithwe ekufundeni kwakhona, nokugcina inkumbulo yexesha elide. Uphononongo oludlulileyo lubonise ukuba ukulala emva kokufunda kuluncedo ekufundeni. Kodwa ngoku siye safumanisa ukuba ukulala ngexesha lokufunda kuphumelela ngakumbi.”

Nangona uphando lubonise ukuba ukuzivocavoca okuphindaphindiweyo kunye nokulala kunokunceda ukuphucula imemori, izifundo ezimbalwa ziye zagxila kwindlela ukuphindaphinda kunye nokulala okudityanisiweyo okuchaphazela imemori. I-Mattress Mazza kunye noogxa bacinga ukuba ukulala ngexesha lokufunda kunokwenza inkqubo yokuhlaziya isebenze ngakumbi kwaye inciphise umgudu ofunekayo wokugcina ulwazi kwimemori.

Olu phononongo lubize abantu abadala abangama-40 abangamaFrentshi, abohlulwa ngokungakhethiyo baba ngamaqela 'abaleleyo' 'nabavukileyo'. Kwinqanaba lokuqala, zonke izifundo zanikwa izibini ezili-16 zamagama esiFrentshi nesiSwahili ngokungacwangciswanga. Emva kokufunda imizuzwana esi-7, kwasala amagama esiSwahili kuphela, yaye abo bafundiswayo bakhetha inguqulelo yesiFrentshi. Isiphumo esichanekileyo sivela emva kwemizuzwana emi-4. Onke amagama angaguqulelwanga ngokufanelekileyo aya kuphinda avele de igama ngalinye liguqulelwe ngokufanelekileyo.

Kwiiyure ezili-12 emva kwenqanaba lokuqala lokufunda, izifundo zawugqiba lo msebenzi kwakhona de onke amagama ali-16 aguqulelwe ngokuchanekileyo.

Kubalulekile ukuba inxalenye yezifundo igqibe inqanaba lokuqala lomsebenzi kusasa, ize eyesibini igqibe ngokuhlwa (iqela 'lokuvuka'); elinye icala lomfundi ligqibe inqanaba lokuqala lomsebenzi ebusuku. Emva koko lala, uvuke ekuseni kwaye ugqibezele isigaba sesibini somsebenzi (iqela 'lobuthongo').

Kwinqanaba lokuqala, imeko yokufunda yamaqela amabini iphantse ifane.

Kodwa emva kweeyure ezili-12, iziphumo zazahlukile: abathathi-nxaxheba kwiqela 'abaleleyo' bacengceleza umyinge wamagama ali-10, ngelixa iqela 'elivukile' linamagama angama-7.5. Xa bephinda uphononongo, abantu abakwiqela 'lobuthongo' banokukhumbula amagama ali-16 kuphela izihlandlo ezi-3, ngelixa abo bakwiqela 'elivukileyo' bafuna amaxesha ama-6.

Ekugqibeleni, omabini amaqela akhumbula amagama angama-16, kodwa ukulala kubonakala kwenza ukuba izifundo zichithe ixesha elincinci.

UMazza uthe: 'Inkumbulo eyayingekho ekuqaleni kokufunda kwakhona ibonakala iguqulwa ngandlela-thile ngokulala. Olu tshintsho luvumela isifundo sovavanyo ukuba sifake ulwazi ngokukhawuleza, ukugcina ixesha kwinkqubo yokufunda kwakhona.'

Uphuculo lwenkumbulo olufunyanwa ngabantu ebuthongweni ngexesha lokufunda lubonakala luhlala ixesha elide. Le datha ilandelayo kumatrasi ibonise ukuba abantu abakwiqela 'abaleleyo' baqhube ngcono emva kweveki enye. Iqela 'elileleyo' lalibala nangaphantsi, lakhumbula amagama ali-15, ngelixa iqela 'lokuvuka' likhumbula kuphela i-11. Emva kweenyanga ezi-6, esi siphumo sisabonakala.

Iingenelo zokulala ekulingweni azikwazi ukubangelwa ngumahluko kumgangatho wokulala wezifundo kunye nokukwazi kwabo ukukhumbula ixesha elide okanye elifutshane, kuba akukho mahluko kule milinganiselo phakathi kwamaqela amabini.

UMazza waqukumbela ngelithi: 'Iziphumo zolu phando zibonisa ukuba enye indawo yokulala ngexesha lokufunda inokuphucula ngokulula nangokufanelekileyo ukukwazi ukukhumbula ulwazi kwixesha elide.'
