This book presents a study on the actuality and the empirical value
of the Freudian dream theory through the analysis of a specific
part of it: children s dreams. It sets out to demonstrate that the
Freudian dream theory shows systematic properties that allow it
empirical control. The book also describes the results of four
systematic studies that the author has conducted in the space of a
decade and present a first empirical judgement on the main
hypotheses formulated by Freud. The results of the studies being
consistent with Ferud s observations.In the first part a systematic
description of Freud s observations on child dreams is given, and
the issue of the supposed empirical uncontrollability of the
Freudian model is analyzed and rejected. The second part studies
the relationship between dream bizarreness and the development of
the superego functions with results consistent with Freud s
observations. Despite the results of the first study, both studies
on childrens dreams presented in this book show that Freud s
hypotheses can be submitted to a systematic test and that this
control is relevant for the purposes of an empirical judgement on
certain more general theses of the Freudian dream model.The work
suggests that the psychoanalytic model of dreams gives way to
predictions that have a statistical significance and show a good
scientific and heuristic value. The result of these studies have
implications for many areas of dream research, particularly the
issue of dream bizarreness, the motivational bases of dreams and
their individual significance."
