Why Winning Powerball Won't Make You Happy
Would winning the $500 million Powerball
jackpot tonight make you happy? Studies and anecdotal accounts of lottery
winners suggest that joy is by no means assured. Though there are stories of
people whose lives improved after landing a big lottery pay-out, there are
seemingly as many winners whose lives got worse.
Academic research on the subject is mixed.
The most frequently-cited study was
published back in 1978 in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology.
Researchers interviewed Illinois State Lottery winners and compared them with
non-winners and with people who had suffered a terrible accident that left them
paraplegic or quadriplegic. Each group answered a series of questions aimed at
measuring their happiness level.
The study found that the overall happiness
levels of lottery winners spiked when they won, but returned to pre-winning
levels after just a few months. In terms of overall happiness, the lottery
winners were not significantly happier than the non-winners. The accident
victims were slightly less happy, but not by much. The study showed that most
people have a set level of happiness and that even after life-changing events,
people tend to return to that set point.
A March Wall Street Journal story recounts
three other relevant studies that lend some support to the notion that a
lottery win could make you happier:
A 2006 British study in the Journal of
Health Economics found that U.K. lottery winners go on to demonstrate
“significantly better psychological health.” That study also found that the
general mental well-being of winners vastly improved.
A study in Florida showed that about 1% of
lottery winners go bankrupt every year. That’s roughly twice the average for
the general population. But the study looked only at winners of $150,000 or
less. It doesn’t really apply to the $500 million drawing tonight. Among those
in the study, people who won six-figure prizes were less likely to go bankrupt.
A British study showed that winners spent
44% of their lottery winnings after five years, but only a few spent their
entire winnings in their lifetime. Again it depended on the amount people won.

Dreams
medicalnewstoday
Dreams are stories and images that our
minds create while we sleep. They can be entertaining, fun, romantic,
disturbing, frightening and sometimes bizarre.
Why do dreams occur? Can we control them?
What do they mean? Medical News Today investigates the current research on
dreams and looks at possible explanations and theories as to why our minds
invent these nightly musings.
What are dreams?
Dreams are a universal human experience
that can be described as a state of consciousness characterized by sensory,
cognitive and emotional occurrences during sleep.
The
dreamer has reduced control over the content, visual images and activation of
the memory.
There is no cognitive state that has been
as extensively studied and yet as misunderstood as much as dreaming.

Dreams are full of experiences that have
lifelike connections but with vivid and bizarre twists.
There are significant differences between
the neuroscientific and psychoanalytic approaches to dream analysis. A
neuroscientist is interested in the structures involved in dream production and
dream organization and narratability. However, psychoanalysis concentrates on
the meaning of dreams and on placing them in the context of relationships in
the history of the dreamer.
Reports of dreams tend to be full of
emotional and vivid experiences that contain themes, concerns, dream figures,
objects, etc. that correspond closely to waking life.27,28 These elements
create a novel "reality" out of seemingly nothing, producing an
experience with a lifelike timeframe and lifelike connections.
Neuroscience offers explanations linked to
the rapid eye movement (REM) phase of sleep as a pinpoint for where dreaming
occurs.
