Assessment of hypnotizability can provide important information for hypnosis research and practice. The Elkins Hypnotizability Scale (EHS) consists of 12 items and was developed to provide a time-efficient measure for use in both clinical and laboratory settings. The EHS has been shown to be a reliable measure with support for convergent validity with the Stanford Hypnotic Susceptibility Scale, Form C (r = .821, p < .001). The current study examined the factor structure of the EHS, which was administered to 252 adults (51.3% male; 48.7% female). Average time of administration was 25.8 minutes. Four factors selected on the basis of the best theoretical fit accounted for 63.37% of the variance. The results of this study provide an initial factor structure for the EHS.
催眠易感性评估可为催眠研究与实践提供重要信息。埃尔金斯催眠易感性量表(EHS)由12个项目组成,旨在提供一种省时的测量方法,可用于临床和实验室环境。EHS已被证明是一种可靠的测量方法,与斯坦福催眠易感性量表C型具有收敛效度(r = .821,p < .001)。本研究考察了EHS的因子结构,该量表施用于252名成年人(男性占51.3%;女性占48.7%)。平均施测时间为25.8分钟。基于最佳理论拟合选择的四个因子解释了63.37%的方差。本研究结果为EHS提供了初步的因子结构。
