The Typical Dreams of Canadian University Students
To investigate the dimensional structure of dreams, the Typical Dreams Questionnaire (TDQ) was administered to 1181 first-year University students in three Canadian cities. A profile of themes was found that varied little by age, gender or region; however, differences that were identified could be interpreted as due to developmental milestones, personality attributes or sociocultural factors. Factor analysis produced a solution consisting of 16 c…
Publication patterns in dream research
The annual rate of journal publications is a pertinent index of a scientific field's prosperity. In the present study, annual publication rates were calculated for the field of dream research using both medical (Index Medicus, MEDLINE) and psychological (PsychINFO) reference databases. A composite profile from the medical database spanning 111 years revealed very similar changes in publishing levels following the release of Freud's (1958/1900) Th…
Effects of somatosensory stimulation on dream content in gymnasts and control participants
Somatosensory stimulation of the leg muscles in REM sleep appears to perturb virtual orientation in dream experiences. According to our model of vestibulomotor adaptation (Sauvageau, Nielsen, & Montplaisir, 1996), the dreaming mind attempts to compensate for such destabilizing stimulation by increasing eye movement activity or by modifying dream content, among other possible reactions. Effective compensation may be more easily achieved by partici…
Topographical EEG mapping in a case of recurrent sleep terrors
Sleep terrors are characterized by marked CNS arousal and typically occur during stage 3-4 sleep within the first NREM cycle. Studies of the EEG during sleep terrors suggest that delta power and synchrony in the EEG may be important physiological markers of sleep terror presence and intensity. An EEG mapping study was undertaken with a single participant who experienced three sleep terror episodes in the laboratory. A one-minute section of EEG wa…
Describing and modeling hypnagogic imagery using a systematic self-observation procedure
The published literature suggests that systematic self-observation may be a suitable method for clarifying the nature and correlates of hypnagogic imagery and thus a useful adjunct to psychophysiological and cognitive studies of sleep onset. The potential applicability of one recently proposed self-observation procedure (Nielsen, 1992) to such studies is demonstrated in the present work. The procedure permits numerous hypnagogic images to be coll…
Changes in the kinesthetic content of dreams following somatosensory stimulation of leg muscles during REM sleep
The notion that dreaming is isolated from sensory activity is chal/~ng~d by demonstrations that somatosensory stimuli are frequently incorporated illlo dreiUlI colllent. To further study such effects, four volunteers were administered pressure stimulation to either the left or the right leg during REM sleep and awakened to report tlu:ir dreams. These dreams were rated and compared to non-stimulated drcams. Stimulated dreams more frequently contai…

Emotions in dream and waking event reports
Twenty participants hand-wrote reports of their dreams and waking life events and used an extensive lexicon of emotion words and types to rate the emotions experienced in each scene of each report. From these ratings, the incidence and intensity of 22 different emotion types in the two kinds of report were assessed. The incidence of emotion categories specified by a cognitive model of emotions was also assessed. Emotions were found to be present …
