Dreams are quite a mysterious thing! Although many people do research on it, the purpose of dreams can still not be fully explained by scientists. Dreams are successions of emotions, sensations, and images that mostly occur involuntarily in our mind during certain stages of sleep. The way how dreams manifest themselves differs for Deaf people. The dreams of Deaf people are usually much more visual.

Some Deaf people have an auditory component in their dreams

If people become Deaf after the age of five, they will probably have an auditory component in their dreams, even after a severe hearing loss. This might range from short auditory flashes to complete auditory recreations.

Dreams of the Deaf are more colorful

Researchers (1) found out that persons with congenital hearing loss have a higher dream recall frequency. Color, vividness, and spatial depth of their dreams is usually amplified. In another study (2), Deaf participants reported a higher rate of nightmares and lucid dreams. Those are considered as intense and vivid dream experiences. Furthermore, taste, smell, pain, temperature, hope, anger, fear, and tense feelings were reported more often by Deaf participants.

How blind people dream

In comparison, blind people’s dreams include all senses except for the visual sense. Like Deaf people, they can also have a visual component in their dreams if they lost their vision after the age of five. (1) Mendelson, J. H., Siger, L., & Solomon, P. (1960).

What's the IQ of a genius?

140 Notably, the average IQ score falls between 85 and 115. A score above 140, meanwhile, is considered to be genius level.

cnbc.com - Here's the IQ score Warren Buffett says is all you need to succeed

While Washington, D.C. leaders fight over who's more intelligent, billionaire businessman Warren Buffett says there's a specific IQ score you need to succeed: 130. A week after NBC reported that Secretary Rex Tillerson called President Donald Trump a "moron," Trump proposed the two compare IQ tests in an interview published on Tuesday by Forbes. "And I can tell you who is going to win," Trump adds. This wouldn't be the first time Trump has bragged about his IQ.

Mensa, an exclusive organization for those who score in the top two percent, has offered to conduct Trump and Tillerson's IQ test. But Buffett has long said that IQ isn't the single defining factor to being successful. More important than IQ, he says, is rationality and emotional stability. "You don't need to be a rocket scientist. Investing is not a game where the guy with the 160 IQ beats the guy with a 130 IQ. Rationality is essential," Buffett is quoted saying in the book, "Warren Buffett Speaks." Notably, the average IQ score falls between 85 and 115. A score above 140, meanwhile, is considered to be genius level.
