چکیده
A lucid dream is de®ned as occurring when an individual becomes aware that they are dreaming, and, while remaining asleep, can control some of the events or content of the dream. Frequent lucid dreamers have previously been shown to be more internal on Rotter's Locus of Control (LOC) scale than are non-lucid dreamers. The present study found that frequent lucid dreamers (n = 22) had higher scores than non-lucid dreamers (n = 20) on the Internal dimension of Levenson's LOC scale, but not on Levenson's LOC Powerful Others and Chance dimensions. Frequent, and also occasional lucid dreamers (n= 15), also scored signi®cantly higher on Need for Cognition and on Gough's self-assessed Creative Personality scale, than did non-lucid dreamers. The results indicate a continuity between styles of waking and dreaming cognition, just as previous work has shown a continuity of content. # 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
