Research clearly shows that people dream in both REM and NREM sleep. However, dreams appear to be more plentiful and much more vivid during REM sleep. Therefore, while research shows that dreams can and do occur in both REM and NREM sleep, it is likely that people remember their dreams during REM sleep.
