Dream Survey Results

Now that I have nearly all of the surveys back, I have a pretty clear image of what we dream about as a class. Thank you all for your timely responses!

Here are the results of the survey:

Themes in order of most to least popular (multiple topics under the same bullet received equal amounts of votes, crossed out type received no votes). Updated on January 24th with number of votes!)

• Being chased/chasing someone 9
• Being physically attacked 8
• Famous people, Flying, Falling, Sex (positive experience) 7
• Dead loved ones, dying or being dead yourself 5
• Losing your teeth, Swimming/Water, Being lost 4
• Modes of transportation 3
• Taking an exam/test, Sex (negative experience) 2
• Public Nakedness, Giving birth, Machines failing you 1
• Changing sex/ being the opposite gender, Needing to use the bathroom 0

I enjoyed your responses of additional themes (all of which are also in my dream journal):

• Tornadoes
• Borrowing/Stealing
• Being ignored/Not being heard
• Books
• Pregnancy
• Working
• Aliens
• War
• Survival in a post-apocalyptic world

 Something I am thinking about: With the exception of positive dreams about sex, we as a class mostly dream about negative themes.
