Characters in the dream would identify interactions between characters. Emotion would identify what the dreamer feels towards the scenario and characters. Colours in the dream would also be a good indicator of how the dreamer feels. Lastly scene would be a category because the scene represents the picture that the unconscious creates and having many different scene imagery can give more information about the dreamer.Deborah Offei-Ansahnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050484728213233970.post-80413890622922163882011-12-14T14:14:31.872-08:002011-12-14T14:14:31.872-08:00To examin relationships, I would include these cat...To examin relationships, I would include these categories: characters, interactions, emotions/moods, settings, and colours.

First of, one category would be the subject itself, being male or female. Another category would be the location, including home, work, school. Another important category to include would be emotion of that subject, which could include feelings of happiness, sadness, anxiety, depression, or even neutral feelings. The colors within the dreams would also be important to include as a category, and the status of the specific subject, being married, in a relationship or even single.<br />All of these categories would be important for my content analysis study in order to analyze certain dreams on relationships.Sacha Smithnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050484728213233970.post-82371864459136168772011-12-14T08:31:25.002-08:002011-12-14T08:31:25.002-08:00If i were examining relationships within a dream i...If i were examining relationships within a dream i would include <br />-Characters<br />-locations<br />-time<br />-mood<br />-color<br />-frequency of the dream<br />-emotions<br />-duration of the dream<br />Using these would help to discover the overall feeling of the dream (mood-positive/negative) and if there is any relevancy of the dream to the waking life of the dreamer (characters, frequency etc).Jaclynnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050484728213233970.post-20222091717553066432011-12-14T08:19:54.683-08:002011-12-14T08:19:54.683-08:00If I were designing a study to examine the relatio...If I were designing a study to examine the relationships in dreams the content categories I would include: 1) characters- including if the character is known or unknown in waking life, the relation the character has to the dream, details about their interaction: were they friendly, or full of conflict, etc. 2) Locations that were in the dream: indoor/outdoor, familiar/unfamiliar, etc. 3) Emotions in the dream- positive, negative, stressful, unstressful, etc. 4) Any conflicts the person was met with in the dream: conflicts with people, conflicts with time and space, personal conflicts, etc. 5) Activities the person participated in during the team: solo/group/couple activity, does the activity require physical action, is it a calming activity, or does it cause stress, is the activity familiar to the dreamer, etc. <br /><br />The most important categories of this study would be the dream characters, conflict and emotions experienced in the dream. I feel these would relate the most to the person's relationships in his or her waking life, and would also give the person the greatest insight into his or her relationships if they were to focus on this content.Debra Hunternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050484728213233970.post-42232976997886328632011-12-14T07:46:13.607-08:002011-12-14T07:46:13.607-08:00If I were designing a study to examine relationshi...If I were designing a study to examine relationships in dreams, these are an example of some of the categories I would include: 1) Characters, Human: age, gender, whether that person was familiar or unfamiliar to me. 2) Social interactions, and descriptors; 3) Emotions: gear, anger, joy, happiness, etc. 4) Activities: (eg. driving, walking, running, dancing, working. 5) Setting: location, time, etc.; 6) other significant elements, ex. Colour. I would create a separate category for romantic/intimate relationships, and include subcategories such as: references to sexuality, and sexual activity.

I would also look at how many of each type of character there is. Looking into the relationship of each character to the dreamer would also help to interpret the dream and the relationship that might be there. Looking into how the characters interact with one another would also be looked into to see whether there is a strong attachment or a weaker one. Also the emotions that are associated with each character is important to look at.Maighan Mackenzienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050484728213233970.post-72833062347434494932011-12-13T20:36:01.152-08:002011-12-13T20:36:01.152-08:00If I were conducting a study on relationships in d...If I were conducting a study on relationships in dreams these are the categories and subcategories I would use:<br /><br />Subject (Male/Female, Familiar/Unfamiliar)<br />Location (Home, cottage, school etc)<br />Emotion (Happy, angry, sad, depressed, rage etc)<br />Event (Good/bad, fight/making up, etc)<br />Colour (Green, blue, black, red, yellow etc)<br />Status (Committed, married, casual, common law etc)Sarah Gallennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050484728213233970.post-54797546338537299632011-12-13T19:46:41.155-08:002011-12-13T19:46:41.155-08:00if i were doing a study on relationships in dreams...if i were doing a study on relationships in dreams, i would include: characters, people, activities, social interactions, and outcomes in the study. characters and people would be used to determine who the relationship is about, activities would be included to see what the relationship entails, social interactions would be used to see who the relationship is folding out and the outcomes would be used to see how well the relationship faired.<br /><br />Melissa Van GrootelAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050484728213233970.post-1904117766827177462011-12-13T17:15:09.130-08:002011-12-13T17:15:09.130-08:00If I were to design a study examining relationship...If I were to design a study examining relationships in dreams, I would include the following categories for Content Analysis: <br /><br />*Main characters in the dream/characters who might keep popping up (men, women, familiar or unfamiliar)<br /><br />*Gender of the characters (i.e. male, female)<br /><br />*Type of interaction (i.e., friendly, romantic, etc.)<br /><br />*Means of interaction (i.e., in person, over the phone, etc.)<br /><br />*Location<br /><br />*Time <br /><br />*Objects/symbols…and even colours<br /><br />*Emotions involved in the interactions (i.e. happiness, anger, frustration, jealousy, etc.)<br /><br />*Reoccurring dreamsJulie Colbynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050484728213233970.post-57413618684233600812011-12-13T16:05:58.153-08:002011-12-13T16:05:58.153-08:00If I were designing a study to examine relationshi...If I were designing a study to examine relationships in dreams I would include several categories.
