Can't say the same about myself. My dissertation was on attentional processing and hypnotic susceptibility. To get an adequate sample size (equal number of people who were highly, moderately and not very hypnotizable) we assessed about 2000 people on their responsiveness to hypnosis. It worked out to be around 500 people per semester.
Then after the initial screenings I had to reassess the 160 people on a more complex and demanding hypnotizabilty measure. Eventually I ended up with about 40 in each of the high, medium and low hypnotizable groups. Then I had to do the actual study, (more on that some other time). The funny thing of it was is that after I learned and was certified in hypnosis, I ended up not being very responsive to it. It wasn't that anything changed, I just got too critical of the techniques being used. larry At 04:24 PM 12/2/02 -0500, you wrote: >On a mundane level I can alter the list software to never send a post from >me to >you and I can alter the archives to generate a thread that's missing all of my >posts.
