Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the performance in a conflict situation between two kinds of motives: One is the subconscious motive induced under hypnosis (Ms) and the other is the conscious motive formed in the waking state (Mc). Tasks were given to the subjects in the three conditions of posthypnotic suggestion, hypnotic learning and the both. And the nature of differences of Ms in each condition were examined. Two points concluded are: (a) Ms resulting from posthypnotic suggestion disappeared more rapidly than Ms resulting from hypnotic learning, and (b) Ms resulting from the both posthypnotic suggestion and hypnotic learning conditions activated less than the one resulting from hypnotic learning condition. However the activation was more than the one resulting from the condition of posthypnotic suggestion; it showed the middle of the two.
