Abstract
It was found that characteristic frontal EEG waves significantly often precede the rapid eye movements of dreaming. The rapid eye movements were absent during dream periods of three men with life-long blindness, and of two men, 30 and 40 years blind respectively, but were present during dream periods in three men blind only 3, 10 and 15 years respectively.Keywords
