New Hypothesis and Theory about Functions of Sleep and Dreams
نویسندگان
چکیده
Aim: The aims of the study were: 1. revealing the new indicator(s) in internal organization of sleep in psychotic states; 2. constitution of new neurophysiologic and statistical models of sleep perturbation in psychotic states and/or altered states of consciousness based on experimental data. 3. Introduction of new sleep marker as biological marker for distinction of sleep organization by different psychotic states. 4. Established new hypothesis and theories in functions of sleep and dreams.

Attachment Hypothesis of REM Sleep Toward an Integration of Psychoanalysis, Neuroscience, and Evolutionary Psychology and the Implications for Psychopathology Research
In this article the authors propose, on the basis of a review of the evolutionary and neuropsychological study of REM sleep, that REM sleep functions to promote attachment and that in the mature state it may promote sexual pair bonding and serve related compensatory functions. The attachment hypothesis is consistent with known psychobiologic correlates of REM sleep, with classical psychoanalyti...

The hypothesis is put forward that rapid eye movement (REM) sleep in early life serves as (1) an indicator for the degree of brain maturation and (2) the promoter of further brain development. This hypothesis, although not exclusive, differs (a) from the theory of Roffwarg et al. that REM sleep substitutes for 'wakefulness' during the period (early life) in which wakefulness is limited, (b) fro...

In this paper, a new stratification of mappings, which is called $Psi$-simulation functions, is introduced to enhance the study of the Suzuki type weak-contractions. Some well-known results in weak-contractions fixed point theory are generalized by our researches. The methods have been appeared in proving the main results are new and different from the usual methods. Some suitable examples ar...
