Abstract (summary)
Through various forms of involvement with Central Alberta Cree (cf. Gackenbach, in press; Gackenbach, 1992-93; Kuiken, Sharp, Jaques, & Mos, 1987), several impressions concerning their orientation toward dream experience have crystallized. One is familiar: Cree dreamers seem more likely than non-Native dreamers to experience their dreams as originating from other-worldly, transpersonal sources. Another is less familiar -- and more speculative: Cree dreamers seem less likely than non-Natives to regard their dreams as providing affectively significant personal insights.
