Questions and controversies in the study of time-varying functional connectivity in resting fMRI (2020, positive): “Beyond wakeful states, information processing and homeostatic processes that occur during sleep play a critical role in memory consolidation (Genzel, Kroes, Dresler, & Battaglia, 2014; McKenzie & Eichenbaum, 2011; Walker, 2009), and have been implicated in a wide range of”
Overnight Therapy? The Role of Sleep in Emotional Brain Processing (2009, background): “Corroborating these correlations, researchers have hypothesized and observed that REM sleep represents a brain state that is particularly amenable to emotional memory consolidation, on account of its unique biology (Hu et al., 2006; Pare, Collins, & Pelletier, 2002; M. P. Walker, 2009).”

The Influences of Emotion on Learning and Memory (2017, background): “…suggest that lateralization likely differs with sex (Hamann, 2005), individual personality (Hamann and Canli, 2004), mood (Rusting, 1998), age (Allard and Kensinger, 2014), sleep (Walker, 2009), subject’s awareness of stimuli (Morris et al., 1998), stress (Payne et al., 2007) and other variables.”
The Role of Sleep in Emotional Brain Function (2014, background): “…REM sleep represents a neurobiological brain-state particularly amenable to selective emotional memory processing (Hu et al 2006, Pare et al 2002, Walker 2009, Walker & van der Helm 2009), with theta oscillations proposed as a carrier frequency that allows disparate brain regions that initially…”
Effects of sleep deprivation on cognition. (2010, neutral): “Interested readers are referred to several excellent and comprehensive reviews (Diekelmann and Born, 2010; Walker, 2009; Walker and Stickgold, 2006).”
The brain basis of emotion: A meta-analytic review (2012, background): “…et al. 1992) or sleep deprivation (Van der Helm et al. 2010; Yoo et al. 2007), in which critical brain regions and/or their connections are functionally altered (over-activated or deactivated), emotion generation is preserved, although subjective emotional experience can be modulated (Walker 2009).”

Processing of emotional reactivity and emotional memory over sleep (2012, positive): “REM3% correlated significantly with Valence; notably, contrary to predictions (Walker, 2009), this relationship was negative (r 0.41, p 0.04).”
Evidence for the preferential incorporation of emotional waking-life experiences into dreams. (2014, background): “For example, if emotion is a factor that affects wake-dream continuity, it might be that dreaming has some role in processing or integrating waking-life emotions, as is thought by many current sleep and dream researchers (e.g. Desseilles et al., 2010; Payne, 2010; Walker, 2009; Wamsley & Stickgold, ”
