The question: Is it true that some people dream in colour and others in black and white? The science: It was once believed that most people dreamed mostly in black and white, and colour dreaming was thought to be associated with psychological issues. Science has since dispelled those myths. While dreaming in black and white is not uncommon, many people dream in colour much of the time.
A 2017 study showed that participants reported color in nearly 50% of their dreams, with black and white dreaming reported only 10% of the time. For 40% of the dreams, dreamers could not recall whether there were any colours..
