Welcome to The International Hypnosis Research Institute Web site. Our intention is to support and promote the further worldwide integration of comprehensive evidence-based research and clinical hypnotherapy with mainstream mental health, medicine, and coaching. We do so by disseminating, supporting, and conducting research, providing professional level education, advocating increased level of practitioner competency, and supporting the viability and success of clinical practitioners. Although currently over 80% of our membership is comprised of mental health practitioners, we fully recognize the role, support, involvement, and needs of those in the medical and coaching fields. This site is not intended as a source of medical or psychological advice. Tim Brunson, PhD

The five factor model of personality and hypnotizability: Little variance in common



Green, J. P. (2004). The five factor model of personality and hypnotizability: Little variance in common. Contemporary Hypnosis, 21(4), 161-168. In 285 undergraduates, this study compared the NEO-PI-R and the Harvard Group Scale of Hypnotic Susceptibility (HGSHS). Gender and personality test scores were accounted for by approximately 8% (6% adjusted) of the variance in hypnotizability scores. The scores on individual facets on the NEO-PI-R accounted for about 21% (12% adjusted) of the variance on the HGSHS:A. These results are consistent with previous studies that attempted to correlate hypnotizability with a measure of the five factor model of personality.
