Not necessarily, unless you have some decent data on this to share? Not everyone might mutter in their sleep. The overlap between the people who mutter and those who self-report might be minimal. Muttering behaviour might have an unexpected relationship with dream recall, etc.
- adamgordonbell 4y agoI believe I recall that lucid dreaming tests were done where you would signal you were lucid via some eye movement. Pairing the eye movement with the recall after the fact would seem to show its not all made up at the time of recovery, though perhaps it could be expanded upon at recall time.
- feanaro 4y agoI guess I understood the claim to be universal, that is that all dreams are constructed purely at the point of waking. If it is not, then what I said is indeed not good evidence for the negation of the claim. However, the possibility that some people dream for real while others simply construct faux memories on the point of waking up seems very stretched to me personally. If you're asking about specific individual experiences, I've personally experienced people talking in their sleep about something, then waking up and explaining what it was about, with perfect consistency. I've also experienced this myself (having other people witness me doing so).
