芝加哥大學有一個特別的實驗室只有在晚上才繁忙。這是一個進行夢的研究的實驗室。在這里研究人員對做夢的人進行研究。他們從研究發現中總結出每天晚上每人都做3—7個夢，盡管通常情況下一個人只能記住一個或忘記他所做的全部的夢。
當被研究對象睡眠時，特殊的機器記錄下他們的腦電波、眼球的運動及表示夢結束的身體的運動。令人驚奇的是所有的被研究對象都睡得很熟。
觀察人員發現人在做夢之前身體會不安地移動。一旦夢開始了，身體會放松，眼部則開始活躍起來，就像帷幕已經拉開，演出即將開始。當機器表明夢已結束時，蜂嗚器會叫醒睡眠者。他會站起來，記錄下他的夢，然后繼續睡，或許會做更多的夢。
研究人員發現如果一個做夢的人在他的夢結束之后馬上被叫醒，那么他一般能夠回憶出整個的夢。如果他再睡上5分鐘，對于夢的記憶就會逐漸消失。這就是為什么大多數人晚上做很多夢，但早上卻幾乎都不記得了。 |
