Abstract
Abstract In 2 separate studies (N = 47 and 143), birth order and family size were found not to be associated with group-tested hypnotic susceptibility using the Harvard Group Scale of Hypnotic Susceptibility, Form A (Shor & amp; E. Orne, 1962). The value of cross validation was demonstrated in the failure to verify the association that appeared between susceptibility and larger families for men in the initial study. Discussion focused on the developmental approach to hypnotizability, including birth order and family size as increasing hypnotic susceptibility in the family milieu. Family interaction influencing hypnotizability is immensely complicated and further studies are suggested.
