• False

• Memories

• 
  

• A significant concern is the potential for hypnosis to create false memories—memories of events that never occurred or are distorted.

• 
  

• Hypnotized participants were more likely to report false memories, and confidence in these false memories made them more likely to be believed.

• 
  

• Memory Suppression

• 
  

• Hypnosis can also be used to suppress memories, helping individuals cope with traumatic experiences by blocking out painful memories and reducing their emotional impact .

• 
  

• Posthypnotic Amnesia

• 
  

• This refers to the inability to recall events that occurred while under hypnosis, often induced by suggestion.

• 
  

• This forgetting is often reversible (Hypnosis and Memory).

Age Regression

•

  Time Distortion

• 
  

• During hypnosis, the perception of time can change, seeming to pass more quickly or slowly, known as time distortion. This is attributed to the subconscious mind processing time differently when the conscious mind is less active.

• 
  

• Deeper hypnotic states and higher suggestibility may increase time distortion.

• Loss of Volition

• 
  

• Hypnotic suggestion can model "loss of control and awareness of movements," offering insights into neuropsychiatric syndromes

• and

• culturally influenced dissociative states.

• "Lack of volition"

• itself is characterized by decreased motivation and willpower,

• often linked to mental health disorders.
