Dream Theories

front 1

Information Processing / Consolidation Explanation

back 1

Dreams help us sort out the day's events and consolidate memories. Critical Consideration: But why do we sometimes dream about things we haven’t experienced or past events?

front 2

Physiological Function Explanation

back 2

Regular brain stimulation from REM sleep may help develop and preserve neural pathways. Critical Consideration: This does not explain why we experience meaningful dreams.

front 3

Activation Synthesis Explanation

back 3

REM sleep triggers neural activity that evokes random visual memories, which the sleeping brain weaves into stories. Critical Consideration: The brain is weaving the stories, which still tells us something about the dreamer.

front 4

Cognitive Development Explanation

back 4

Dream content reflects the dreamer’s level of cognitive development; dreams simulate life, including worst-case scenarios. Critical Consideration: Does not propose an adaptive function of dreams.
