Perceptual and Motor Skills, 82, 88-90.https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14078/1850Responds to S. Roll's (1995) charge of reductionism concerning the authors' finding of a parallel between patterns of delayed incorporation of events into dreams of humans and REM sleep patterns of rats (see record 1996-16368-001 ). Also, it is argued that the disruption-avoidance-adaptation model by J. Wright and D. Koulack (1987) explains better the dream-lag effect than Roll's psychoanalytic model of repression and repetition compulsion.enAll Rights Reserveddream contentdreamingmemoryresponse latencysleepratsanimalsarousaldreamshumanslife change eventsmental recallpsychoanalytic theoryrepression, psychologysleep, REMtime factorsArticlehttps://doi.org/10.2466/pms.1996.82.1.88
