This paper presents an overview of the essential nature of hypnosis as it is studied and practised today. Some theoretical controversies are mentioned and historical antecedents are briefly summarized. An overview is then presented of the ways in which hypnosis is applied therapeutically. It is concluded that although clinical hypnosis has yet to be informed by a strong academic base, progress ...
Hypnosis appears to generate unusual—and sometimes even astonishing—changes in the contents of consciousness. Hypnotic subjects report perceiving things that are not there, they report not perceiving things that are there, and they report unusual alterations in the phenomenology of agency. In addition to apparent alterations in the contents of consciousness, hypnosis also appears to involve alt...
This paper discusses approaches to defining hypnosis with reference to three components: suggestion, trance, and induction. The author favors a “minimalist” approach that specifies the essential features of the procedure adopted by the hypnotist. Hypnosis having been thus defined, the processes that underlie the diverse responses and experiences of subjects are determined empirically, rather th...
Clinical hypnosis and EMDR have both been employed in the treatment of phobias. EMDR has been a controversial treatment method with the research showing mixed results concerning its efficacy. Many studies have shown the effectiveness of hypnosis in the treatment of phobias, but no studies have directly compared hypnosis to EMDR. This paper discusses each approach to treatment, with special emph...
The extent to which self-hypnosis can be used in surgical procedures is a topic of controversy. This author considers the limits imposed, by the literature, on the effectiveness of self-hypnosis in major abdominal surgery to be academic and unfounded. This is an account of a cholecystectomy performed using self-hypnosis as the sole anesthetic agent. Muscle relaxation, shallow breathing, pulse r...
There is an official history of hypnotism: very often it begins with the Scottish surgeon James Braid (1795-1860) who was one of the first physicians to have used this word in 1843. Instead of using the standard magnetic induction popularized by magnetism/mesmerism1, he proposed his subjects to stare steadily at a shiny object to enter a trance. He tested his method to anesthetize his patients ...
Much appreciation is due to Green, Barabasz, Barrett and Montgomery (2005) for the collegial and inviting spirit of their article introducing the 2003 APA Division 30 definition of hypnosis. Their title, “Forging ahead,” is exactly right if we are to craft from our still diverse understandings of hypnosis a working definition to guide further dialogue. They suggest we treat this definition as a...
The analysis presented in 1972 by R. F. Q. Johnson, B. A. Maher, and T. X. Barber indicated that nonhypnotic 5s manifest trance logic as often as "real" hypnotic 5s. E. R. Hilgard's 1972 critique contended that the analysis was misleading because only those 5s should have been included in the analysis who met the stringent criterion for hallucination. This paper shows that when one includes in ...
articles contributed to the Edinburgh Medical Journal. After a review of the various opinions that have been held in England of late years concerning hypnotism, the author proceeds to describe the means used to hypnotise persons, dividing these, as is usually done, into those acting by mental suggestion and those acting by physical stimulation. In doing so, he does not clearly point out that mo...
In a recent article on the nature of hypnosis, Evans (2000) lists my name with that of Clark L. Hull as one of two past influential authorities on the subject who have allegedly taken (Weitzenhoffer, 1953) the position that hypnosis is just a form of suggestibility, presumably implying it is nothing more than that. Evans points out this is an oversimplification and adds that recent authorities ...
