Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1) Metal parts, that cannot be removed, are present in or on your upper body, e.g. plates, screws, aneurysm clips, metal splinters, piercings or medical plasters. Dental fillings, crowns, a metal wire behind the teeth, tattoos and contraceptive coils are allowed. The researcher will additionally inform you. 2) Clothing on the upper body containing any metal e.g. zips, buttons, hooks, braces, metal yarn (LUREX). This also applies to bras containing a metal brace wire. 3) You have an active implant, a pacemaker, insulin pump, neurostimulator and/or ossicle prosthesis. 4) You have a history of brain surgery. 5) You suffer from epilepsy. 6) You suffer from claustrophobia.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The main endpoints of this study are the blood level-dependent (BOLD) response and the EEG signal as dependent variables. We want to investigate brain connectivity on regions of interest for neurobiological models of dreaming such as the vmPFC, dlPFC, and hippocampus for instance. Brain networks during non-lucid, lucid REM sleep compared with wakefulness. Additionally, we are interested in EEG frequency characterization and regional activities during REM sleep. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary aims of the proposed research include EEG correlates of lucid REM and non-lucid REM sleep, activity associated with tonic and phasic REM sleep that is theta, alpha, and gamma bands, REM saccades, and its activation association. | — |
