  4. 3. The Threat Simulation Theory and Dream Content Analysis on Traumatized Subjects

    University essay from Institutionen för kommunikation och information

    Author : Rickard Redgård; [2007]
    Keywords : threat simulation theory; trauma; function of dreaming; dream content;

    Abstract : The present study set out to test some of the predictions made by the Threat Simulation Theory, which suggests an evolutionary source of dreaming (Revonsuo, 2000a). The qualitative content and frequency of threatening events in dreams were compared between traumatized Swedish subjects with experience of the tsunami-disaster in Southeast Asia in 2004 with Swedish subjects with no traumatic experiences.
