[QUOTE="Naraoia, post: 57098364, member: 202689"] That was an entertaining read, but most of it is about how hypno[I]therapy[/I] is of questionable value and susceptible to quackery. Which I already knew :P Thanks to the skepdic article, though, I found [URL="http://www.hypnosisandsuggestion.org/"]this[/URL], which has a lot more about what's actually happening (or not) in hypnosis. Geez, this field is a lot more complicated than I thought. I found the outcome of [URL="http://huuk.nfshost.com/assets/files/Gandhi2005.pdf"]this study[/URL] particularly interesting. The effect of hypnosis doesn't seem to be [I]wholly[/I] due to the label, but still, what you call it makes a heck of a difference! :eek: (Although... seriously, group testing and self-reporting in an experiment like that? Hello, confounding variables!) [/QUOTE]
