| Zusammenfassung: | 185 undergraduate volunteers were administered the Harvard Group Scale of Hypnotic Susceptibility. 23 subjects scoring 0 through 4 and 26 subjects scoring 10 through 12 were given a questionnaire designed to elicit information regarding their religious background and experience. Low susceptibility was associated with perceiving one's mother as slightly religious or not religious (p < .05), and high susceptibility was associated with having undergone the experience of being "saved" (P < .05). When interviewed, all of the high-susceptibles who professed having been "saved" reported that the experience was characterized by profound experiential changes, while none of the low-susceptible group reported such phenomena. |
