[Dreams of children and adolescents with high and low anxiety level].
One hundred and three children and adolescents, aged 10-17 years have been examined in the study: 78 neurotic patients with high and low anxiety level and 25 healthy children. Lusher's color test with anxiety expression evaluation according to L. Skott and psycholinguistic analysis of the reports on the dreams were the main methods used. In the dreams of the patients with neurosis, high anxiety correlates, which shared in common temporal orientation towards a future being negatively emotionally colored, have been determined. These dreams differ from those in healthy children with anxiety that have been positively emotionally colored with favorable outcome and orientation towards the present.
