研究称人确实能被催眠

Researchers from the Universities of Turku and Aalto in Finland and Sweden’s University of Skövde, have found evidence for the hypnotic state by studying a volunteer’s glazed staring eyes。

The study findings were published in journal PLoS ONE, and came about from observing a highly hypnotisable person, who could be hypnotised and dehypnotised by just using a one-word cue。

This meant the change between hypnotic state and normal state could be varied in seconds。

They found that the glazed stare was accompanied by objectively measurable changes in automatic, reflexive eye behaviour that could not be imitated by non-hypnotised participants。

Significantly, in the field of hypnosis research this result means that hypnosis can no longer be regarded as mental imagery that takes place during a totally normal waking state of consciousness。

The researchers believe that it may be the first evidence of the existence of a conscious state in humans that has previously not been scientifically confirmed。

据英国《每日邮报》10月26日报道，来自芬兰图尔库大学和阿尔托大学，以及瑞士舍夫德大学的研究人员通过研究一位志愿者目不转睛的呆滞目光(指被催眠后)后，发现了催眠状态存在的证据。

该研究观察了一位很容易进入“催眠状态”的志愿者。只需一个单词的提示，他就能进入或脱离催眠状态。研究结果发表在了《科学公共图书馆综合版》上。

这意味着催眠状态和非催眠状态在短时间内就能转换。

他们发现这种目不转睛的呆滞目光伴随着客观变化而变化，这些变化是眼球自动的、反射性的行为，非催眠状态下的人无法模仿。

值得注意的是，在催眠的研究领域，这一结果意味着催眠不再被视为是在意识完全清醒的状态下发生的心理意向。

研究人员认为，该结果可能首次提供了一个证据——人类具有一种之前未被科学证实过的意识形态。
