The first application of the new Process Scoring System for dreams was made in an intensive longitudinal case study of 1 S over a 5.5 year period. In this second application, the dreams of a sample of 5 experienced Feeling Therapy patients were compared to those of 5 control S s. As in the first study, considerable support was found for both the transformation hypothesis, which holds that it is possible to shift from a symbolic mode of dream behavior to a directly expressive one, and the parallelism hypothesis, which holds that the expression of affect in dreams parallels the expression of affect in waking and vice versa.
