BOSTON- The slumbering mind might not seem like an apt tool for any critical thinking, but humans can actually solve problems with asleep, researchers say. Not only that, but one purpose for dreaming itself may be to help us find solution to puzzles that plague us during waking hours.
Dreams are highly visual and often illogical in nature, which makes them ripe for the type of "out-of-the-box" thinking that some problem-solving requires, said Deirdre Barret, a psychologist as Harvard University.
Barrett's thory on dreaming, ehich she discussed at the Association for Psychological Science meeting here last month, boils down to this : Dreaming is really just thinking, but not a slightly different state from when our eyes are open.
