REM Dreaming and Cognitive Skills at Ages 5-8: A Cross-Sectional Study.
Foulkes, David; And Others
International Journal of Behavioral Development, v13 n4 p447-65 Dec 1990
Describes laboratory research on REM (rapid eye movement) sleep in children ages five to eight. Image quality, self-representation, and narrative complexity of dreams all develop as age progresses. Children's representational intelligence predicts their rate of dream production, but language skills do not. (GH)
