A device was developed in 2008 by Hypnoke International Ltd. for use by performance consultants and hypnotherapists. It enhances a practitioner's voice and blocks out auditory distractions while delivering imagery inductions, thereby increasing their effectiveness. This study examined the impact of voice-enhancement technology and relaxing music on the frequency of imagery experienced by a sample of elite British break dancers (N = 20; mean age = 26.5 years, SD = 1.5 years). An imagery script was administered to participants under four conditions: voice enhancement with music, voice enhancement only, a music-only control, and a no-voice-enhancement-and-no-music control. Frequency of imagery was assessed using the Sport Imagery Questionnaire. There was a higher incidence of imagery in the voice enhancement with music, voice enhancement only, and music-only conditions when compared to the no-voice-enhancement-and-no-music control. The key finding was that imagery was most frequent when voice enhancement was combined with music in a complementary manner. Thus, it is concluded that the use of voice enhancement technology can improve the efficacy of relaxation and imagery training for break dancers, and potentially, dancers in general.
2008年，Hypnoke国际有限公司研发了一种设备，供绩效顾问和催眠治疗师使用。该设备能增强从业者的声音，并在进行意象诱导时屏蔽听觉干扰，从而提高其效果。本研究考察了声音增强技术和舒缓音乐对一组英国精英霹雳舞者（N = 20；平均年龄 = 26.5岁，标准差 = 1.5岁）体验意象频率的影响。在四种条件下向参与者提供意象脚本：音乐辅助声音增强、仅声音增强、仅音乐对照以及无声音增强和无音乐对照。使用运动意象问卷评估意象频率。与无声音增强和无音乐对照相比，音乐辅助声音增强、仅声音增强和仅音乐条件下的意象发生率更高。关键发现是，当声音增强与音乐以互补方式结合时，意象出现得最为频繁。因此，得出结论，声音增强技术的使用可以提高霹雳舞者，乃至一般舞者的放松和意象训练效果。
