Information processing during sleep: the effect of olfactory stimuli on dream content and dream emotions
Journal of Sleep Research, 08/20/09
Schredl M et al. – Findings show that information processing of olfactory stimuli is present in sleep and that the emotional tone of dreams can be influenced significantly depending on the hedonic characteristic of the stimulus used.
Methods- Assessment of 15 healthy, normosmic volunteers by intranasal chemosensory stimulation during rapid eye movement sleep based on air-dilution olfactometry
- Olfactory stimulation by hydrogen sulphide (rotten-egg smell) and phenyl ethyl alcohol (rose smell)
- Comparison with a control condition without stimulation
- Olfactory stimuli significantly affected emotional content of dreams
- Positively toned stimulus yielded more positively toned dreams
- Negative stimulus yielded more negatively toned dreams
- No direct incorporations (ie, dreamer is smelling a scent) reported
