Narratives of the dreams of 145 early adolescents were tape-recorded and transcribed, and the frequencies of various grammar forms and common words were calculated. The most common nouns were "house" and "mother;" the most common verbs were "go" and "do." Results indicate that linguistic features of dream narrative are affected by age and sex. (Author/MKA)
