The Lucid Dream Skills Questionnaire (LUSK) measures the frequency of lucid dreaming. The LUSK total score ranges from 0-4 (the mean of the item scores), with higher scores representing a higher frequency of lucid dreaming. In general, a higher frequency of lucid dreaming is not inherently "better" or "worse." For the purpose of this trial, one of the intervention components (Targeted Dream Control) attempted to increase lucid dreaming, so a higher score for this trial would indicate an improvement.
