Having defined the distinction between hypnagogic imagery and dreams, a preliminary study on the individual differences in the experience of visual hypnagogic imagery was conducted. (1) A questionnaire on visual hypnagogic experience was administered to 796 students. The results suggested that previous researches on the incidence of this experience might have suffered from ambiguous definitions. (2) The Scale of Mental Imagery (Hasegawa, 1992) was administered to 330 of the same students, Eysenck Personality Questionnaire to 305 students, and S-A Creativity Test (Sozosei-shinri-kenkyukai, 1969) to 221 students. The frequency of hypnagogic experiences was significantly associated with the scores of "the vividness of mental imagery", "neuroticism", and "creativity". (3) Based on these results, a proposed research problem on hypnagogic imagery was discussed.
在明确了入睡前意象与梦境之间的区别后，我们对视觉入睡前意象体验的个体差异进行了初步研究。（1）我们向796名学生发放了一份关于视觉入睡前体验的问卷。结果表明，以往关于这种体验发生率的研究可能因定义模糊而受到影响。（2）我们对其中330名学生进行了心理意象量表（长谷川，1992）测试，对305名学生进行了艾森克人格问卷测试，对221名学生进行了S-A创造力测试（创造心理学研究会，1969）。入睡前体验的频率与“心理意象的生动性”“神经质”和“创造力”得分显著相关。（3）基于这些结果，我们讨论了一个关于入睡前意象的拟研究问题。
