Compare and contrast the "role-playing" and "altered state" views of hypnosis.
On Jun 09, 2024
both views are attempts to account for known hypnotic phenomena,which include heightened suggestibility,relaxation,focused attention,and enhanced fantasy.proponents of the "role-playing" view regard hypnosis as a normal state of consciousness in which suggestible people act "as if" they are hypnotized by enacting their role expectations about how hypnotized people should behave.in support of this view,there is evidence that many supposed hypnotic phenomena can be duplicated by nonhypnotized subjects.other theorists continue to insist that hypnosis is a unique,altered state of consciousness.for example,ernest hilgard maintains that hypnosis creates a dissociation in consciousness-a splitting off of mental processes into two separate,simultaneous streams of awareness.this view is made plausible by the fact that divided consciousness is a common,normal experience (as in "highway hypnosis," for example).at present,there is no resolution to the debate between these two opposing views.
