Researchers demonstrate impact of lucid dreaming - University Of Northhampton

[Pygar]

After a twelve week programme, volunteers who were able to induce lucid dreams – where the dreamer is aware they are dreaming – became more adept at perceiving subtle changes or objects in their visual field.

According to lead researcher, Dr David Saunders, this observed change in perception suggests that lucid dream experiences may impact on the way we think, solve problems, and relate to others in waking life.

“These findings suggest people who are trained to lucid dream become more ‘field independent’ in their waking life.



Results from two of the tests – the first measuring one’s need for- and enjoyment of mental stimulation, the other measuring the extent to which a person believes they control their own destiny – showed no change in both those who had and those who had not experienced a lucid dream.

However, the third test of ‘Field Dependency’* showed a clear change, with the scores of those who had successfully induced lucid dreams increasing by an average of 13%. The scores of those who hadn’t induced lucidity showed no change.
