Detection efficiency of humans deteriorates rapidly in a variety of monotonous monitoring tasks. The experiment was performed to determine whether or not superior vigilance performance could be obtained through hypnosis in the context of perceptual deprivation. Subjects, forty U.S. Navy personnel, were divided into four groups. Subjects worked on a simulated radar target-detection task before and after one of four treatments. Those given post-hypnotic suggestions for increased alertness made significantly fewer errors in target detection while those exposed to suggestions for decreased performance or perceptual deprivation only showed significant increases in errors. Controls showed no significant changes in errors. Change scores were significantly related to Stanford Hypnotic Clinical Scale hypnotizability scores for subjects in the hypnosis-augment performance group but not for other groups.
在各种单调的监测任务中，人类的检测效率会迅速下降。进行该实验是为了确定在感觉剥夺的情况下，通过催眠是否可以获得更好的警觉表现。40名美国海军人员被分为四组。受试者在接受四种治疗之一前后进行模拟雷达目标检测任务。那些接受提高警觉性的催眠后暗示的受试者在目标检测中犯的错误明显减少，而那些接受降低表现或感觉剥夺暗示的受试者仅表现出错误显著增加。对照组的错误没有显著变化。变化分数与催眠增强表现组受试者的斯坦福催眠临床量表可催眠性分数显著相关，但与其他组无关。
