Twenty-six Vietnam veterans were studied to determine the relationship between posttraumatic stress disorder and hypnotizability. The intensity of their posttraumatic stress disorder was measured by a self-report. Their hypnotizability scores, vividness of imagery scores, and symptomatic profiles were also ascertained. Veterans with low or no posttraumatic stress disorder scores had normal hypnotizability scores and normal imagery scores, whereas those with high posttraumatic stress disorder scores had high hypnotizability scores and high imagery scores. The authors conclude that either combat traumas enhanced hypnotic potential in some veterans or that veterans with excellent hypnotic potential to begin with were more susceptible to posttraumatic stress.
对26名越南退伍军人进行了研究，以确定创伤后应激障碍与催眠易感性之间的关系。通过自我报告来衡量他们创伤后应激障碍的严重程度。还确定了他们的催眠易感性得分、意象生动性得分和症状概况。创伤后应激障碍得分低或无得分的退伍军人，其催眠易感性得分和意象得分正常，而创伤后应激障碍得分高的退伍军人，其催眠易感性得分和意象得分也高。作者得出结论，要么是战斗创伤增强了一些退伍军人的催眠潜力，要么是一开始就具有出色催眠潜力的退伍军人更容易患上创伤后应激障碍。
