Posthypnotic responding was investigated as a function of experimenter surveillance and instructional set (hypnotic induction vs. task-motivational instructions). As predicted, posthypnotic behavior occurred with greater frequency under conditions of surveillance than nonsurveillance. However, replicating Orne et al. (1968), a few subjects did respond when not under surveillance and the likelihood of such responding was positively correlated with suggestibility level. Contrary to expectation, hypnosis, as opposed to task-motivational instructions did not uniquely facilitate responding in the nonsurveillance conditions. The implications of the findings for role and state conceptions of hypnosis are discussed. |
