'Taking a coffee break after class can actually help you retain that information you just learned,' explained Lila Davachi, assistant psychology professor at New York University (NYU) in whose lab the study was conducted.
'Your brain wants you to tune out other tasks so you can tune in to what you just learned,' she added.
The study, led by Arielle Tambini, doctoral candidate in NYU's Graduate School of Arts and Science, focused on memory consolidation -- the period when a memory is stabilized after it is initially created, or encoded."
