研究表明，梦见伴侣出轨或许预示着关系将面临危机。

　　Nightmares about a partner cheating may indicate that a relationship is heading for trouble, according to a new study investigating the predictive value of dreams.

　　Researchers from the University of Maryland asked 61 participants aged 17 to 42 who had been dating someone for at least six months, to keep a journal detailing their dream and relationship activity over a two-week period.

　　Findings showed that images of jealously and arguing triggered next-day conflict between couples while visions of infidelity resulted in reduced love or intimacy.

　　Figuring things out: Dreams can be used to predict future relationship behavior according to a new study

　　Commenting on the outcome, lead researcher Dylan Selterman told the Huffington Post: &aposA lot of people don’t pay attention to their dreams and are unaware of the impact they have on their state of mind.

　　&aposNow we have evidence that there is this association.&apos

　　When it came to sex dreams volunteers in good couplings spent the following days with a heightened sense of love and intimacy.

　　However, those had by people in weaker relationships had the opposite fect.

　　Explaining the trend, Dr Selterman said: &aposWe already know there’s a high correlation between sexual satisfaction and relationship satisfaction, this might be another manifestation of that.

　　&aposSex can be good or bad in a dream in the same way that it can be good or bad in real life.&apos

　　He believes these correlations are the result of a psychological fect known as &apospriming&apos - the idea that exposure to external stimuli

　　(sights, sounds, smells) brings certain thoughts to the top of people’s minds.

　　&apos[Dreams] have predictive value. People’s activity changes as a function of the dream they had the night bore,&apos he wrote in the paper.

　　He apparently based the research, published earlier this month in the journal Social Psychological and Personality Science, on his own experience with a college girlfriend who would get angry with the way he behaved in her dreams.

　　A study earlier this year published in the journal Dreaming revealed that romantic partners feature in about 20per cent of people&aposs dreams.

　　一项关于梦境的预测价值的研究表明，梦见伴侣出轨或许预示着关系将面临危机。

　　据英国《每日邮报》5月16日报道，马里兰大学的研究人员跟踪调查了61位年龄在17到42岁之间的志愿者，观察他们约会至少半年，并以两星期为周期详细记录他们的梦境以及恋爱关系。

　　研究表明，梦见嫉妒或者争吵场景，会引发双方第二天的矛盾，而不忠诚的假想则会降低亲密感。

　　研究负责人迪伦·赛尔特曼称，“很多人不重视梦境，也没有认识到梦对心情的影响。现在我们有证据表明这两者之间是有联系的。”

　　如果梦见性爱，关系良好的情侣会在未来几天增强亲密感;而关系不好的情侣效果正相反。赛尔特曼博士解释说：“性满足与情感满足之间有高度关联性，我们的研究或许说明了这一点。梦中的性爱有好有坏，正如现实中性爱有好有坏一样。”(编译：刘强)
