Examined whether performance on a spelling task would be influenced by visual information in the reported absence of hypnotized subjects' awareness of that information. Experiment 1 visually presented uncommon spellings of homophones to subjects before and during a suggestion for hypnotic blindness, and subsequently tested subjects' spelling of the homophones. Words presented during hypnotic blindness influenced subjects' spelling performance. Subjects' attributions of their performance did not involve awareness of the homophones. Experiment 2 used the nonexperiment methodology to examine the impact of demand characteristics and indicated that the performance attributions of subjects of Experiment 1 could not be explained in these terms. The discussion focuses on implicit perception in hypnotic blindness and on the relevance of attributions about behavioral performance on hypnotic phenomena.
研究了在报告称被催眠的受试者未意识到该信息的情况下，拼写任务的表现是否会受到视觉信息的影响。实验1在对催眠性失明进行暗示之前和期间，向受试者视觉呈现同音异形异义词的不常见拼写，随后测试受试者对这些同音异形异义词的拼写。在催眠性失明期间呈现的单词影响了受试者的拼写表现。受试者对其表现的归因并不涉及对同音异形异义词的意识。实验2采用非实验方法来检验需求特征的影响，并表明实验1中受试者的表现归因不能用这些因素来解释。讨论集中在催眠性失明中的内隐知觉以及关于催眠现象中行为表现的归因的相关性。
