Supposedly. he used to fall asleep in a chair. holding two balls in his hands. As he nodded off, the balls fell down. The resulting noise woke him up. Then, he could write down his inventive ideas before he fell into a deep sleep and forgot them. This inspired a new study.Researchers tested Edison's method of encouraging creativity with 103 healthy people. Volunteers came to the lab to solve a number problem. They were asked to change some numbers into a shorter sequence (序列). They were told to follow two simple rules. However, what the volunteers werent told was that there was an easy trick to finish this task. The second number in the sequence would always be the correct final number.After doing this task 60 times volunteers got a 20 - minute break. Volunteers held the similar balls that Edison used as “alarm clocks”. The researchers told them to rest or sleep if they wanted to. All the while. their brain waves were kept track of (跟踪) . More than half of the volunteers stayed awake. Twenty- four fell asleep and stayed in the stage (阶段) of sleep called N1. Fourteen others progressed to N2, a deeper stage of sleep.After their rest. volunteers returned to their number problem. People who reached the N1 stage of sleep were 2.7 times as likely to discover the hidden trick as people who stayed awake and were 5. 8 times as likely to discover the trick as people who fell into a deeper sleep stage.“Such obvious (明显的) differences in such experiments arc not common,” said Delphine Oudiette, a scientist. “We were quite surprised at the results, and more work is neede
