Hypnotizability:Harvard and Stanford Scales with African American College Students
Marty Sapp Ed.D
The purpose of this study was to assess hypnotizability using the Harvard Group Scale
of Hypnotic Susceptibility,Form A (HGSHS:A),and the Stanford Hypnotic Susceptibility
Scale,Form C (SHSS:C)with African American college students.There were 103
African American undergraduate students participating in this study.Like a previous
study by Sapp and Hitchcock (2001),the Inner Subjective Experiences method for
scoring the HGSHS:A produced more reliable results than the standard scoring system.
The SHSS:C and the Inner Subjective Experiences Scale for the SHSS:C both produced
reliable results,and point estimates for coefficient alphas for the SHSS:C and Inner
Subjective Experiences did not differ from values obtained for European American
college students.(Sleep and Hypnosis 2004;6(1):14-18)
