Abstract Previous studies implicate involvement of dopaminergic systems in hypnotizability and report association with the COMT Val158Met single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP, rs4680) demonstrating Val/Met heterozygotes as most hypnotizable group using Stanford Hypnotic Susceptibility Scale. This study replicates that an independent sample 127 healthy Hungarian young adults Waterloo-Stanford Group C Scale Susceptibility. Significant (p = .016) was found between genotypes hypnotizability, a...

Abstract The study introduces an interactional analysis of subjective data (PCI and DIH questionnaires) from hypnotist subject along with the concept hypnosis styles (maternal/paternal scores), in a real‐simulator design. It was expected that experiences maternal paternal hypnotists (and their subjects) are different: 1) style is more emotional regarding both experience parameters, while rather cognitive sovereign; 2) subjects can signs alteration consciousness styles; 3) hypnotizing, likely...
Abstract Following the administration of a Hungarian translation Stanford Hypnotic Susceptibility Scale, Form C (SHSS:C), 104 subjects completed Phenomenology Consciousness Inventory (PCI). Subjects had also been administered Harvard Group Scale Susceptibility, A (HGSHS: A) about 1 week to 2 months before SHSS:C The pattern correlations between hypnotizability (as measured by HGSHS:A and SHSS:C) 5 factors PCI was quite similar that previous work carried out using English language versions on...
Abstract In a between-lab study, constant and steady shift was found in hypnotizability scores measured with standard scales. To investigate time effect Hungarian (within-lab) sample, 613 subjects' on Stanford Hypnotic Susceptibility Scale, Forms A B, 1898 self-scores, 1713 observer-scores the Harvard Group Scale of were analyzed. From 1970s to 2010, significant increase observed SHSS:A B female subjects HGSHS:A both genders. Females proved be significantly more hypnotizable than males group...
