Mark: The College Student
Much can be learned from young, "normal" subjects. Mark's dreams from his high school and college years show us how certain salient features of a person's life can be clearly reflected in a quantitative analysis of that person's dreams.

Lucile
Lucile is a woman who wrote down more than 500 of her dreams between the ages of 57 and 64. These dreams show impressive consistency over that time period, and Calvin Hall's correspondence with Lucile confirmed a great deal of continuity with her waking life, including details about her relationships with various loved ones.

George Weldon
This is a man who has given us thousands of dream reports, from 1981 through 1996. We coded the dreams on a few select categories, and we're measuring the consistency in those categories over the 15-year period.

Schizophrenics
We obtained a set of dreams from psychiatric patients; some of them were schizophrenic, some were alcoholic, some were both, and some were neither. The graph on this page shows the schizophrenics' dreams compared to the norms; they have comparatively little friendliness or striving, and few friends.
