Reduced dream-recall frequency in left-handed adolescents: a replication.
Laterality January 1, 2014 Michael Schredl, Alan A Beaton, Josie Henley-Einion et al.
Right-handed and mixed-handed children and adolescents report recalling dreams more often than left-handed individuals, especially among adolescents. In a sample of 3,535 participants aged 6 to 18 years, right- and mixed/inconsistent handedness were linked to higher dream-recall frequency compared to left-handedness, with the effect stronger in adolescents than in children. The reasons for left-handers' lower dream recall remain unknown and require further investigation.
