In studying the data, the researchers found that both groups responded when their names were called when they were sleeping, but the high recallers responded more. Quite unexpectedly, the same group also showed brain wave spikes when hearing their name spoken when wide awake. The team also found that the high recallers spent more time awake on average during their sleep cycle than did low recallers (30 minutes compared to 15).Higher stress response associated with sleep disorders. Wonder what it could be.
The researchers speculate that high recallers are more reactive to environmental stimuli in general, which explains why their brains would respond more in response to hearing their name called when awake. Why they respond more when sleeping, they add, likely means they are more responsive when dreaming as well, which may or may not be connected to why the same group spends more time awake at night.
For the record, LUCID DREAMING IS A SIGN OF ACUTE INFECTION, not superhuman mind control powers.
