Dream and emotion regulation: Insight from the ancient art of memory

Martin Desseilles, Catherine Duclos

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

During dreaming, as well as during wakefulness, elaborative encoding, indexing and ancient art of memory (AAOM) techniques, such as the method of loci, may coincide with emotion regulation. These techniques shed light on the link between dreaming and emotional catharsis, post-traumatic stress disorder, supermemorization during sleep as opposed to wakefulness, and the developmental role of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep in children. © 2013 Cambridge University Press.
