  • Title: [Method of studying psychotherapeutic resistance during the conduct of hypnotic sessions for neurotic patients].
    Author: Voskresenskiĭ MF.
    Journal: Zh Nevropatol Psikhiatr Im S S Korsakova; 1986; 86(8):1235-6. PubMed ID: 3776402.
    Abstract:
    The available methods of determination of hypnosis liability are restricted to investigation of the possibility of suggestion of motor acts, various sensations, etc., and cannot provide an answer as to suggestibility with regard to the patient's ability to change his or her opinions under the effect of direct therapeutic hypnosis. In this connection the author proposes an experimental-psychological method of determining this suggest ability with the help of TAT pictures. This technique of examination has been tested in 53 neurotic patients. It allows the differentiation of patients who get into a hypnotic state fairly easily but show complete resistance to direct therapeutic suggestions. It is necessary, therefore, to elucidate the origin of such resistance, to find ways for its control, and also to seek for other ways of psychotherapeutic impact.
