Two experiments assessed the effects of psychological variables on wart regression. In Experiment 1, subjects given hypnotic suggestion exhibited more wart regression than those given either a placebo treatment or no treatment. In Experiment 2, hypnotic and nonhypnotic subjects given the same suggestions were equally likely to exhibit wart regression and more likely to show this effect than no treatment controls. In both experiments, treated subjects who lost warts reported more vivid suggested imagery than treated subjects who did not lose warts. However, hypnotizability and attribute measures of imagery propensity were unrelated to wart loss. Subjects given the suggestion that they would lose warts on only one side of the body did not show evidence of a side-specific treatment effect.
两项实验评估了心理变量对疣消退的影响。在实验1中,接受催眠暗示的受试者比接受安慰剂治疗或未接受治疗的受试者疣消退得更多。在实验2中,接受相同暗示的催眠和非催眠受试者疣消退的可能性相同,且比未接受治疗的对照组更有可能出现这种效果。在两项实验中,疣消失的受试患者比疣未消失的受试患者报告的暗示性意象更生动。然而,催眠易感性和意象倾向的特质测量与疣的消失无关。接受仅身体一侧疣会消失暗示的受试者没有显示出特定侧别治疗效果的证据。
