A split second. A dream shows up in brainwave alterations
which can be measured by an apparatus called Magnetic
Resonance, at the stage of echo spin it will read movement
and alterations, it can trace a ailment and can be used as
a lie detector, alterations in sleep which will measure time
but this does not mean that you will be conscious of the
full time it measures a dream. So I suggest you try this,
place a pencil and paper at your bedside and as soon as
you are semi-awake write down a word or two (no more).
Then shower, or go to have breakfast and think what you
were dreaming about. Now go and look at the words you have written on the paper, more often than not you will have a big
surprise to find that the words written down have nothing to
do with your consciously remembered dream at breakfast!
Which one was your true dream. I would say both. The words
have to do with a dream in deeper sleep and what you really
remembered is the last chapter alone. See if it works for you
and think about it, but do not make a habit of this, otherwise
you will never get into deep sleep worried about writing more
than sleeping. Have a good night‘s sleep! Cheers Iain

Hard to actually prove. Look at the length of the REM cycle (90 min) and consider how many dreams you have in that time and how much of it is spent dreaming. I think you have about 3 REM cycles per night.

dreams happen during Rapid Eye Movement, or REM. REM starts about 45 mins after you fall to sleep, and finishes about 20 mins before you wake up. REM normally lasts between 15 and 60 mins, and can happen 3 or 4 times a night, depending upon how stressed you were before falling to sleep. Dreams occur because, although your body is asleep, your brain is still awake, calculating sounds, smells etc. during your sleep, your brain accesses your memory banks (apparently) and puts the memories together to try to make sense of them. this is when REM starts. this rapid 'puzzle - making' of your memories is actually your dreams, although it doesnt seem like it. there is no explantion of how some people have deja-vu in there dreams, as in they see the future in their dreams.

hope this helps

you dream when you are the rem part of your sleeping cycle, all dreams are real time, so if it feels you had a long dream you actually did, its a myth that dreams feel like they are long but your only dreaming for a brief period of time. the longest rem cycles are at the end of the night and can be up to 90 minutes long, so if your dream felt long, it probaly was.

dreams actually occur during the last 10-15 minutes of the time you're asleep and only usually lasts for that long (10-15 mins)

Dreams don't actually take as long as they seem to. I have had dreams in which weeks and months had passed, and yet when I woke, I was not starving, nor had I grown older like Rip Van Winkle.

A few seconds. It just seems like more afterwards because your brain can process its own signals much faster without your consciousness getting in the way.
