Abstract

Abstract Forty-eight hypnotizable subjects, all capable of achieving the criterion of amnesia for a five-digit number, were divided into three groups: hypnosis, pretend-hypnosis, and waking. On the color-naming section of the Stroop Color and Word Test, the distribution of correct responses for color-blind performance of these groups was compared with the theoretical chance distribution of correct responses expected of truly color-blind subjects. The hypnosis group differed significantly from the theoretical distribution, while the pretend group did not differ significantly from the chance distribution. On the interference section of the Stroop, the number of correct responses did not differ significantly between groups.
