| Abstract: | MEASURED VISUAL IMAGERY UNDER SENSORY RESTRICTION AND UNDER RHYTHMIC PHOTIC STIMULATION TO TEST THE HYPOTHESIS THAT HIGH VISUAL-IMAGERY INDIVIDUALS WOULD BE MORE SUSCEPTIBLE TO HYPNOSIS. SUPPORT FOR THE HYPOTHESIS WAS OBTAINED PRIMARILY FROM IMAGERY MEASURES THAT INSTRUCTED 784 STUDENTS TO TRY TO SEE CERTAIN SPECIFIED IMAGES. LITTLE SUPPORT WAS OBTAINED USING LESS PRESCRIPTIVE MEASURES TAPPING FREE, SPONTANEOUS IMAGERY. THE DIMENSIONS OF IMAGERY AND POSSIBLE SEX DIFFERENCES IN VISUAL IMAGERY WERE STUDIED. (29 REF.)
