Biological Psychology June 1, 1984 Peter Fenwick, Morton Schatzman, Alan Worsley et al. 56 citations
During lucid dreaming, a subject performed willed movements of fingers, toes, and feet, remembered tasks, and counted sensory stimuli. Dreamed speech was linked to respiration. Electromyographic activity associated with dreamed actions was stronger in flexor than in extensor limb muscles and never appeared in axial muscles.
