Sex differences in the dreams of southern college students

Abstract

this statistical procedure may be attributed to chance. This permits the interpretation that so far as M determinant productivity is concerned, it is not affected by the presence (C) and absence (A) of color in the Rorschach inkblots.A final bit of evidence to support the above contention is the rho of .86 between M in C and A plates. M-productivity in one series permits adequate prediction for the other. 4. CONCLUSIONSThe four findings reported immediately above indicate that the M factor in Rorschach responsiveness is independent of the color variable.1. 2.3. 4.;>. 6. " I . 8. 9. BIBLIOGRAPHY ALLEN, R.

Dreams and Demography

“…Women seem to be more involved with interpersonal relationships than are men. The higher percentage of aggression as defined by Hall and Van de Castle and of overt hostility as defined by Gottschalk-GIeser is in accord with the findings of a number of earlier studies (10,14,24,25,41). Looking at both aggressive and friendly social interactions in dream content it can be seen that the data fit a conceptualization of the woman as a more passive person who either receives or witnesses the behaviour of others while men 88-205 are more actively and directly involved.…”

Do we dream in color? Cultural variations and skepticism.

“…Apparently, so did Aristotle (in Gallop, 1996), Descartes (1649/1985), Freud (1900/1931), and everyone else we've been able to find who wrote on the topic prior to the 20th century. In the middle of the 20th century, however, research psychologists and the general public in the United States thought they dreamed primarily in black and white (e.g., Middleton, 1942; Hall, 1951; de Martino, 1953; see Schwitzgebel, 2002 for a review).…”
