Using a backward-masking paradigm with a bias-free and ceiling-free psychophysical task, we tested hypnotized and control subjects for speed of visual information processing. Approximately half of each group received visual imagery suggestions in an attempt to influence attention. Imagery produced no significant differential effect. Although an absence of a hypnotizability-performance relationship was in keeping with findings of a previous study, those subjects in the present study who performed under hypnosis were, as a group, significantly superior to the other subjects in speed of information processing.
我们使用一种具有无偏差和无上限心理物理学任务的后向掩蔽范式,测试了被催眠的受试者和对照组受试者的视觉信息处理速度。每组中约一半的受试者接受了视觉意象暗示,试图影响注意力。意象并未产生显著的差异效应。尽管缺乏催眠易感性与表现之间的关系与先前一项研究的结果一致,但在本研究中接受催眠的那些受试者,作为一个群体,在信息处理速度上显著优于其他受试者。
