Paper Summary:
Nightmares are one of the most common sleep disturbances in young children. This paper compares the two forms: the more familiar nightmare, in which the child wakes up and remembers what the dream consisted of; and night terrors, in which the child often wakes up terrified and screaming, but does not remember the dream that triggered the terror.From the Paper:
"In a nightmare, the child is awakened by the bad dream and can tell the parent what happened in the dream. The themes typically center on the child being in danger or helpless. Often in the dream, the child has to escape from a wild animal or monster. Some experts also think that scary television programs or movies may contribute as well as separation anxiety."More papers on Nightmares:
