Abstract

Abstract Case reports are an important and useful segment of the hypnosis literature. Single case reports warrant publication if they illustrate new insights and if they are in some way unique. The usual organization of the case report is to have a brief introduction with a literature review, the case history, a concise description of the treatment intervention, a report of the results with follow-up, and a discussion of the significance of the case. In addition to adding something new to the literature, case reports must meet certain standards to justify publication. A case report may be evaluated by assessing its internal validity, its external validity, and the methods of data collection. The single system design provides a method for research with one or several patients that is second in usefulness only to controlled studies.
