  • Title: Italian norms for the Stanford Hypnotic Susceptibility Scale, Form C.
    Author: De Pascalis V, Bellusci A, Russo PM.
    Journal: Int J Clin Exp Hypn; 2000 Jul; 48(3):315-23. PubMed ID: 10902296.
    Abstract:
    This paper presents norms for an Italian translation of the Stanford Hypnotic Susceptibility Scale, Form C (SHSS:C; Weitzenhoffer & Hilgard, 1962). Archival data on hypnosis research subjects recruited over a 10-year period of research on hypnosis were pooled, resulting in an aggregate sample of 356 participants (263 female and 93 male). Score distribution, item difficulty levels, and reliability of the SHSS:C were computed. Of this group, 218 subjects were administered the Harvard Group Scale of Hypnotic Susceptibility approximately 3 weeks prior to administration of the SHSS:C. The remaining 138 subjects received only the SHSS:C. Results suggest that the Italian version of the SHSS:C is a reliable and valid measure.
