Abstract
In a counterbalanced, within-subjects, repeated measures design, 130 participants were administered both the Computer-Assisted Hypnosis Scale (CAHS; C. D. Grant, 1993) and the Stanford Hypnotic Susceptibility Scale, Form C (SHSS:C; A. M. Weitzenhoffer & E. R. Hilgard, 1962). For each hypnotic procedure, responsiveness was assessed along three dimensions: behavioral (CAHS, SHSS: C), subjective depth (Field Depth Inventory; P. B. Field, 1965), and relational involvement (Archaic Involvement Measure; M. R. Nash & D. Spinler, 1989). The CAHS was shown to be a psychometrically sound instrument for measuring hypnotic ability. The various dimensions of CAHS hypnotic responsiveness were highly positively related, and the CAHS compared favorably with the SHSS: C across the three dimensions assessed. Results are discussed in terms of the theory and practice of clinical assessment, noting directions for future research
