Results
Comments: As to be expected at a website about dreaming, the majority of the visitors has a high recall of dreams, much more than would be likely for people in general.

Q: Do you share dreams with family members or friends?
(November 11 - 18, 1998: 31 respondents)
35% Several times a week (11)
19% Several times a month (6)
6% Several times a year (2)
35% Rarely (11)
3% Never (1)
 
 
Results
Comments: This one was a huge surprise to me. For the "several times a week" category I had expected two or three percent maximum, never something as high as 35%. Even taking into account that the all respondents are very serious about dreaming, it remains remarkable.

Q: Did you ever have a dream that made you laugh?
(November 18 - 24, 1998: 31 respondents)
10% No, never (3)
29% Yes, rolling on the floor (9)
39% Just smiling only (12)
23% Don't know (7)
 
 
Results
Comments: This one I added purely out of curiosity. I had no idea what to expect. Apparently, to many people dreams can be spirit lifting and to some dreams can even be very funny

Q: Do you write down your dreams?
(November 24 - December 8, 1998: 32 respondents)
16% Daily or several times a week (5)
19% Several times a month (6)
34% Sometimes, but not every month (11)
31% No, never (10)
 
 
Results
Comments: Considering how much time it takes to keep a dream journal, these results make sense. Surprising perhaps is that a third of the respondents writes dreams down less than once a month. I guess these are mostly people who keep a daily journal and only record dreams that are truly remarkable to them.

Q: In dreams (while asleep), do you do things you would not dare to in waking life?
(December 8 - 30, 1998: 33 respondents)
12% Never (4)
24% Rarely (8)
36% Sometimes (12)
15% Often (5)
12% Always (4)
 
 
Results
Comments: More than half of the respondents does things in dreams at least sometimes that they would not dare to do in waking life. That's more than I had expected and I wonder what kind of things these are.

Q: Did you ever have a precognitive dream?
(December 30, 1998 - January 18, 1999: 30 respondents)
17% Never (5)
13% Once ever (4)
33% Once every few years (10)
27% Several times a year (8)
10% Several times a month (3)

Comments: Stretching it a bit, from those that have an opinion not a single one prefers the real thing above sex in dreams. Hmm...
