Abstract
Objectives: In the past, latent dreams were emphasized in the psychiatric field, but these days the interest in manifest dreams is increasing as ego psychology develops. Hall and Nordby proposed that there are similarities between manifest dreams and real life. The Hall/Van de Castle System is a method of dream content analysis, which considers both the quantitive and qualitive analytic aspects of manifest dreams. Methods: The dreams of 232 males and females (M:F=127:105;mean age=21.02.7) were collected through the Most Recent Dream Method. Collected data were analyzed using the Hall/Van de Castle System. Results: Female subjects tended to be more detailed and meticulous in reporting their dreams. The dreams of male subjects showed a higher percentage in self-negativity (2=6.64, df=1, p=0.004), and the dreams of female subjects showed a higher percentage in group character (2=6.64, df=1, p=0.0099), dreamer-involved success (2=3.12, df=1, p=0.048), and good fortune (2=4.52, df=1, p=0.034). Conclusion: This study suggests the norm of dream content of Korean college students, and it presents the differences between Korean males and females, and between Korean college students and American college students. This study may contribute to further studies on dream content analysis.
배 경:과거에는 정신과 영역에서 잠재몽이 강조되어 왔으나, 오늘날은 자아 심리학의 발달과 더불어서 현재몽에 대한 관심이 증가하고 있다. 아울러 Hall과 Nordby는 현재몽과 실생활과의 사이에서 유사점이 있다고 주장하였고, 현재몽을 통한 일상생활에서의 정신병리에 대한 연구들도 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 현재몽을 분석하기 위한 방법으로 Hall/Van de Castle System이 있으며, 이는 양적, 질적 분석을 모두 고려한 꿈 내용 분석의 한가지 방법이다. 방 법:232명의 남성과 여성(M:F=127:105;mean age=
