Hypnotic susceptibility, eeg-alpha, and self-regulation

David R. Engstrom

pp. 173-221

Abstract

Hypnosis is probably more popularly known, revered, feared, and mystified than any other informational control known to man. Its methods, motives, and outcomes have been bent out of shape by hundreds of old movies and old wives' tales. The mass media have formed popular knowledge of hypnosis largely from improbable clinical applications and naïvely effective coercive control by bad guys.
