In lucid dreams the dreamer is aware that he or she is dreaming. Although such dreams are not that uncommon, many aspects of lucid dream phenomenology are still unclear. An online survey was conducted to gather data about lucid dream origination, duration, active or passive participation in the dream, planned actions for lucid dreams, and other phenomenological aspects. Among the 684 respondents who filled out the questionnaire, there were 571 lucid dreamers (83.5%). According to their reports, lucid dreams most often originate spontaneously in adolescence. The average lucid dream duration is about 14 minutes. Lucid dreamers are likely to be active in their lucid dreams and plan to accomplish different actions (e.g., flying, talking with dream characters, or having sex), yet they are not always able to remember or successfully execute their intentions (most often because of awakening or hindrances in the dream environment). The frequency of lucid dream experience was the strongest predictor of lucid dream phenomenology, but some differences were also observed in relation to age, gender, or whether the person is a natural or self-trained lucid dreamer. The findings are discussed in light of lucid dream research, and suggestions for future studies are provided.
在清醒梦中，做梦者意识到自己正在做梦。尽管这类梦并不罕见，但清醒梦现象学的许多方面仍不清楚。开展了一项在线调查，以收集有关清醒梦的起源、持续时间、在梦中的主动或被动参与、清醒梦的计划行动以及其他现象学方面的数据。在填写问卷的684名受访者中，有571名清醒梦者（83.5%）。根据他们的报告，清醒梦最常于青春期自发产生。清醒梦的平均持续时间约为14分钟。清醒梦者在其清醒梦中可能会很活跃，并计划完成不同的行动（例如飞行、与梦中人物交谈或做爱），然而他们并不总是能够记住或成功执行自己的意图（最常见的原因是醒来或梦境环境中的阻碍）。清醒梦体验的频率是清醒梦现象学的最强预测因素，但在年龄、性别或一个人是天生的还是自我训练的清醒梦者方面也观察到了一些差异。结合清醒梦研究对这些发现进行了讨论，并为未来的研究提供了建议。
