The purpose of this study is to reveal the nature of regressive state in hypnosis by means of word-association-test (WAT). Stimulus words for WAT, pronounced without intonation, was presented to hypnotic, control, and distraction groups. At the first test, all groups were under awaken state, and at the second test, hypnotic group was under hypnosis, distraction group was under distraction. (1) Under hypnosis, more visual images (signifié-images) and clang associations (significant-images) were imagined. The hypnosis was supposed to be a partial, controlled "regression in the service of the ego", and in this state the lexical meaning was not dissolved, but the unity among person, symbol, and referential object in Werner & Kaplan's sense was restored by the images. (2) The results suggest that hypnosis is different from distraction state, and is a state of specific concentration. (3) Since the signifié-image was contrary to the significant-image, these two were regarded as two aspects of regressive state in hypnosis. These two aspects are manifestation of emotional problems and restoration of body-mind unity.
本研究的目的是通过词语联想测试（WAT）揭示催眠状态下退行状态的本质。将无语调读出的WAT刺激词呈现给催眠组、对照组和分心组。在第一次测试时，所有组均处于清醒状态，在第二次测试时，催眠组处于催眠状态，分心组处于分心状态。（1）在催眠状态下，更多的视觉意象（所指意象）和语音联想（显著意象）被想象出来。催眠被认为是一种部分的、受控制的“为自我服务的退行”，在这种状态下，词汇意义并未消解，而是通过意象恢复了维尔纳和卡普兰意义上的人、符号和指称对象之间的统一。（2）结果表明，催眠不同于分心状态，是一种特定的专注状态。（3）由于所指意象与显著意象相反，这两者被视为催眠状态下退行状态的两个方面。这两个方面是情绪问题的表现和身心统一的恢复。
