1.We have dreams almost every night.Do you ever notice the colors of your dreams?Do you dream in black and white or do you dream in yellow,red and green?New research suggests that the type of television you watched as a child has a great effect on the color of your dreams.
While almost all people under 25dream in color,thousands of people over 55,all of whom were brought up with black and white TV sets,often dream in monochrome(黑白画面).
"It suggests there could be a critical period in our childhood when watching films has a big impact on the way dreams are formed",said Eva Murzyn,a psychology student at Dundee University in Britain who carried out the study.
Research from 1915through the 1950s suggested that the vast majority of dreams are in black and white.But the tide(潮流) turned in the sixties,and later results suggested that up to 83percent of dreams contain some color.
Since this period also marked the transition(过渡) between black-and-white film and TV and Technicolor(印染法彩色),an obvious explanation was that the media had been painting people's dreams.However,there weren't any firm conclusions.
But now Miss Murzyn believes she has proven the link.She made a survey of more than 60people,half of whom were over 55and half of whom were under 25.
She asked the volunteers to answer a questionnaire on the color of their dreams and their childhood exposure to film and TV.
She then analyzed her own data.Only 4.4percent of the under-25s'dreams were black and white.The over-55s who had had access to color TV and film during their childhood also reported a very low proportion of just 7.3percent.
But the over-55s who only had access to black-and-white media reported dreaming in black and white about a quarter of the time.
Even though they would have spent only a few hours a day watching TV or films,their attention and emotion would have been heightened during this time,leaving a deeper imprint on their mind,Miss Murzyn told the New Scientist.
"The crucial time is between three and ten when we all begin to have the ability to dream",she said.
