Typical Dreams Experienced by Koreans

본 연구는 한국인들이 경험하는 전형적인 꿈 내용의 주제를 확인하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 TDQ(Typical Dream Questionnaire)를 한국판으로 번안하여, 외국자료와 비교하는 한편, 꿈 내용을 범주별로 구분하여 성별․국가별로 비교하였다. 그 결과, 한국인들은 떨어지거나, 쫓기는 꿈을 가장 많이 경험하는 것으로 나타났으며, 남성은 성 행위, 하늘을 나는 꿈을, 여성은 이가 빠지거나, 공부하는 꿈을 더 많이 경험하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 범주별로는 긍정적 주제 범주를 가장 많이 경험하고, 자기변형 주제 범주를 가장 적게 경험하는 것으로 나타났으며, 성별로는 여성이 통제상실이나 억압, 재앙과 관련된 주제 범주를, 남성은 마법-신화와 관련된 주제 범주의 꿈을 더 많이 경험하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과들은 전형적 꿈 경험에 대한 범문화적 유사성을 지지하고 있으며, 동시에 한국인들만의 특이성을 시사하는 것으로 논의되었다.

Abstract

The present study investigated the prevalence profile of typical dream themes experienced by Koreans. The Typical Dreams Questionnaire was administered to 500 Korean participants. The results showed that dreams of flying and being chased are most popular. Males reported to have dreams of sexual experience or flying more often than any other kinds of dreams, and females reported to more often have the dreams of loosing teeth or studying. In terms of factors, the dreams of positive themes are most frequently reported. Meanwhile, the greater portion of female's dreams belong to the factors of inhibition and loss of control and the greater portion of male's dreams belong to the factors of magic-myth. These results supported cross-cultural universality of typical dreams and also demonstrated some uniqueness of Koreans' typical dreams.
