I think this representation of hypnosis is valid, back in the 1990s, "The Hypnotic World of Paul McKenna", there were many different television shows that used this as a way of making cheap entertainment for the masses. Besides who doesn't want to see a loved one or friend acting like an idiot for fame and glory, thankfully we have moved on from that, instead we have reality television which is much the same thing but without hypnosis. Although one could argue it is the television audience that is hypnotized by the contestants lewd and offensive behavior. I do think there is truth in hypnosis but I think it depends on the person, I would like to say I don't think I could be hypnotized , but as it has never happened to me I can not say for definite whether it would affect me whatsoever. I think it is down to the individual who is being hypnotized, and is due to weaker minds that can be coerced into being hypnotized in the 1st place, we live in a world where it is easy to coerce "people into giving their life savings away to a Nigerian Prince" with very little effort. So I would say it is possible but I have yet to see it unless …show more content…

Perhaps trying to help the patient remember painful memories or of lost hours of their lives, for example those who have reported "Alien Abduction" or those that may or may not have "been drugged previously against their will." Its hard to say what would be a normal experience of hypnosis as many people think that it is a con or that those that "can be hypnotized in the 1st place may or may not have known mental health issues." I can offer no insight on whether it is real or not I have neither seen it or experienced it, and personally would not accept it being done to me. Just the thought of it being done to me repulses me to the core, having your brain opened much like a book for all to see, what a scary

First, this ideology that hypnosis leads participants to have heightened confidence levels in their memory recall can result in a testimony that can sway a jury and possibly lead to the false incarceration of an innocent person. Second, the research that was conducted also concludes that hypnosis does not improve memory; people in a hypnotic state are as likely to incorporate irrelevant information into their testimonies as regular people are. This makes the recall elicited under hypnosis as reliable as the memory produced regularly. Accuracy levels among the memories recalled in the studies signify that memories recalled under hypnosis are no more accurate than the memories of a regular eye-witness. With regards to the case, the testimony provided by Mrs. Walter should be deemed inadmissible because any information provided to the court through the use of hypnosis should be disregarded, as it does not add any value to the memory Mrs. Walter is trying to

“… some therapists convinced patients they had been molested or abused as children because of hypnotically induced memories, which often had no evidence to support them. As a result, many innocent people were wrongly accused of abuse in hundreds of court cases” (Smith). Memories can be highly suggestable, so the use of hypnosis with memory is never going to be an exact science. If, for example, one is under hypnosis and is asked a leading question about a memory, fictional or not, their memories may become altered to fit the scenario described. People are often unsettlingly confident in these hypnotically-induced memories (Lilienfeld et al. 73), which can lead to incorrect testimony or
