Some of your friends rarely remember their dreams, while others can describe their dreams very clearly. Why do people remember dreams different
41、ly?The answer is simple: they are two different types of dreamers - low recall dreamers and high-recall dreamers.According to researchers at the Lyon Neuroscience Research Center in France, high-recall dreamers reported they remembered their dreams almost every day while low recall dreamers said the
42、y only remembered their dreams once or twice a month, reported Live Science.Perrine Ruby, a lead scientist at the research center in Lyon, studied 41 people (21 high-recall dreamers and 20 low-recall dreamers) and recorded their brain activity.She found that a part of the brain called the temporo-pa
43、rietal junction (前颞顶叶交 界处)was more active in high-recall dreamers. This was true both when they were sleeping and awake.This area of the brain is responsible for collecting and processing information from the outside world. This means that high-recall dreamers are more sensitive to what is happening
44、 around them. For example, when they are awake, they respond more strongly to hearing their own names. When they are sleeping, they tend to be woken up more easily by sounds and movements.By closely studying peoples brain activity, Ruby found that high-recall dreamers have twice as much wakefulness
45、during sleep as low-recall dreamers do. And it is during these short periods of wakefulness that the brain memorizes dreams.This is not hard to understand. Just try to think of your own sleeping experience. If you are restless during the night, you are more likely to remember your dreams, but if you
46、 sleep well and soundly, you tend to remember very little in the morning. This is because “you never get a chance to remember”, Robert Stick gold, a Harvard Medical School researcher, told The Washington Post.As another research project at the University of Turku in Finland showed, dream content can also affect our memory. Negative dreams are easier to recall than ordinary dreams. Night
