<p>Is this true? Is this because I'm more alert not to, you know, and therefore sleep less deep and therefore experience more dreams?</p>

@what after reading parts of the article, I think that **positive** means that it was good for them to wake up before worse things happened. But thanks for your effort...

For any dream, all your conscious guards should be down. Unless they are down you cannot dream. If you drink lot of water before sleeping, you will be alert enough not to wet the bed. Means brains knows that body should not do this so it will be consciously guarding against this event. And if conscious is guarding then unconscious will be happy to stay away, means no dream.
