An observation group of 623 subjects with female prevalence (F = 57%, M = 43%) between the ages of 12 and 87 years old (average of 38.26 years; SD 14.71) was involved; the evaluation was carried out with the MADRE questionnaire, translated in Italian and corresponding to the original version. The statistical models performed in this article were linear regression for numerical variables, binary logistic regression for dichotomous variables and ordinal logistic regression for ordinal variables. Number and frequency related to items were reported, in line with the original article. The results were comparable to the previous versions, so effects of age, gender and dream recall were relevant as dependences. The research on dreams can serve as an integrative key point, opening doors to different perspectives inter alia based on evidence in literature. Our contribution has arisen from the wish to spread this method to the Italian population.</p>}, number={1}, journal={International Journal of Dream Research}, author={Settineri, Salvatore and Frisone, Fabio and Alibrandi, Angela and Merlo, Emanuele Maria}, year={2019}, month={Apr.}, pages={119–129} }
