The Psychology Department of the University of California, Santa Cruz, offers access to a collection of over 16.000 dream reports in English and 6.000 dream reports in German, coming from a variety of different sources and research studies, from people ages 7 to 74.
The reports can be analyzed using a search engine and statistical programs built into the DreamBank website. Several of the people who contributed dreams to the DreamBank wrote prefaces to their journals which are also available. A summary of the collection available for search is presented in the grid.
D. William Domhoff wrote a contribution “Fast Content Analysis Using the Internet” in 2004 based on the search engine. More recent findings have been published in Consciousness and Cognition (17, 1238-1247) in 2008 in the contribution “Studying Dream Content Using the Archive and Search Engine on DreamBank.net“.
