Natural Person Critique

Current text is about depth of effect for a population presumed to have susceptibility. Says little or nothing about the common sense thing that is susceptiblity period. As if everyone was at least partially susceptible to hypnotic suggestion (as opposed to drugs, fatigue, etc.) 74.78.162.229 (talk) 21:03, 11 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The range of IQ will determine how easily someone can be forced into a trance. Those with IQ below 80 or above 140 are nearly oblivious to hypnosis and will feel nothing different, while those within the range are more prone to hypnosis, especially those with IQs between 110 and 125. --Commander Lightning

Fair use rationale for Image:Hilgardmug 160.jpg

Image:Hilgardmug 160.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 22:36, 5 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

HIP or Hypnotic Induction Profile

The eye-roll sign is just one part of the HIP. The HIP is a clinical test that takes 5-10 minutes and is well-described in detail in the book Trance & Treatment by Drs. Herbert and David Spiegel. This clinical test The HIP starts with the eye-roll, then eye closure a deep breath inhale then exhale relaxing the eyes and let the body float. The subject is given the suggestion to float and follow a set of directions which are then measured - dissoiciation, suggestion, differential sense of control, cut-off, and floating sensation. bmenn (talk) 14:52, 20 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hypnotic suggestability

It looks to me like Suggestibility § Hypnosis covers the same ground as this article, and should be merged into this article, and then rewritten in that article as a summary of this one in summary style. However, I have no expertise in this area. Daask (talk) 15:14, 3 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
