Aspecial laboratory at the University of Chicago is busy only at night.It is adream laboratory where researchers are at work studying dreamers.Their findingshave discovered that everyone dreams from three to seven times a night,although in ordinary life a person may remember none or only one of his dreams.

Whilethe subjects—usuallystudents—sleep, special machines record their brainwaves and eye movements aswell as the body movements that signal the end of a dream.Surprisingly, all subjects sleep soundly.

Observersreport that a person usually keeps moving restlessly before a dream.Once thedream has started, his body relaxes and his eyes become more active, as if thecurtain had gone up on a show. As soon as the machine shows that the dream isover, a bell wakens the sleeper.He sits up, records his dream, and goes back tosleep—perhaps to dream some more.

Researchershave found that if the dreamer is wakened immediately after his dream, he canusually recall the entire dream.If he is allowed to sleep even for five moreminutes, his memory of the dream will have disappeared.
