“…One methodology suggested by Reyher (1961) for the study of posthypnotic behavior requires susceptible Ss to fake trance and employs the same Ss in both the trance and faking conditions. The particular condition (faking or trance) remains unknown to the E conducting the crucial testing.…”

“…For example, in early research using posthypnotic suggestion, Reyher and colleagues modeled pathological symptoms such as repression and impulse inhibition (Burns & Reyher, 1976;Perkins & Reyher, 1971;Reyher, 1961Reyher, , 1962Reyher, , 1969Reyher & Basch, 1970). More recently, hypnosis has been used to model conversion hysteria (Halligan, Bass, & Wade, 2000), auditory hallucinations (Szechtman, Woody, Bowers, & Nahmias, 1998;Zimbardo, Andersen, & Kabat, 1981), functional amnesia (Barnier, 2002;Barnier & McConkey, 1999;Barnier, McConkey, & Wright, 2004;Cox & Barnier, 2003), functional blindness (Blum, 1975;Bryant & McConkey, 1989a, 1989b, mirrored-self misidentification , and déjà vu (O'Connor, .…”

In 2 experiments, the authors created a hypnotic analogue of delusions of misidentification and explored their impact on autobiographical memory. In Experiment 1, to establish the paradigm, high and low hypnotizable participants were given a suggestion to become someone similar or dissimilar to themselves. In Experiment 2, to further test the paradigm and to examine autobiographical remembering, highs were given a suggestion to become a same-sex sibling, administered 2 challenges to the temporary delusion, and asked to generate autobiographical memories. For high hypnotizable participants, the suggested delusions of misidentification were compelling and resistant to challenge. During these temporary delusions, participants generated specific autobiographical memories that reflected previously experienced events viewed from the perspective of the suggested identity. These findings highlight the instrumental value of hypnosis to the investigation and understanding of delusions and autobiographical memory.

“…For instance, in the 1960's, Reyher and colleagues used posthypnotic suggestions to successfully model pathological symptoms, including repression and impulse inhibition (Burns & Reyher, 1976;Perkins & Reyher, 1971;Reyher, 1961Reyher, , 1962Reyher, , 1969Reyher & Basch, 1970). In recent years, hypnosis has been used to model conversion hysteria (Halligan, Bass, & Wade, 2000), auditory hallucinations (Woody & Szechtman, 2000), functional amnesia (Barnier, 2002;Barnier & McConkey, 1999;Barnier, McConkey, & Wright, 2004;Cox & Barnier, 2003), and functional blindness (Blum, 1975;Bryant & McConkey, 1989a, 1989b.…”
