Research Abstract |
The present study investigated the relationship between dream recall and brain activities associated with rapid eye movements during REM sleep. In the results, the number of rapid eye movements had a positive correlation with impression of dream. The brain activities, which has a generator in the motor area, positively correlated with activity and strangeness of dream. Moreover the number of rapid eye movements also positively correlated with the improvement of unfamiliar motor learning task. These results suggested that rapid eye movements activate the brain activity that makes the dream more vivid and clearer, and improves the motor learning skill.
