Suggested visual hallucination without hypnosis enhances activity in visual areas of the brain.
This functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) study investigated high and low suggestible people responding to two visual hallucination suggestions with and without a hypnotic induction. Participants in the study were asked to see color while looking at a grey image, and to see shades of grey while looking at a color image. High suggestible participants reported successful alterations in color perception in both tasks, both in and out of hypnosis, and showed a small benefit if hypnosis was induced. Low suggestible people could not perform the tasks successfully with or without the hypnotic induction. The fMRI results supported the self report data, and changes in brain activity were found in a number of visual areas. The results indicate that a hypnotic induction, although having the potential to enhance the ability of high suggestible people, is not necessary for the effective alteration of color perception by suggestion.

Confidence is a person perceived ability to handle any situation that their life may encounter. This means that there's a constant evaluation as to whether a perceived or imagined reality presents a difficulty or threat that is or is not beyond one's assessment of their capabilities. When a challenge is deemed to exceed capability, then negative stress occurs. When the opposite is true, then one could say the confidence exists.
There are two problems that you must be aware of. The first is when the assessment is erroneous. In those cases a person may misjudge their ability to...
Recently the topics of bullying in bullies have received considerable attention in the press. This is surprising as this phenomenon has been with us since the dawn of mankind and will continue to be with us until civilization evolves sufficiently. Despite its popularity as a topic for discussion, I am frustrated as the speakers and writers rarely adequately define it. However, for the adverse effects of bullying to be adequately treated, it is imperative that it be looked at in its basic form.
Bullying is a form of instinctual dominance play. It can be seen in any form of pack...
