ScholarBank@NUS Repository. https://doi.org/10.1080/00207144.2013.753830 | Abstract: | Self-presentation refers to the behavioral strategies a person adopts to convey desired social images of oneself to other people. The Concern for Appropriateness Scale (CAS) measures a defensive and fearful social approach aimed at avoiding social threats whereas the Revised Self-Monitoring Scale (RSMS) measures an active and flexible social approach aimed at gaining power and status. In this study, a significant correlation was found between hypnotizability, as measured by the Stanford Hypnotic Susceptibility Scale, Form C (SHSS:C) scores and CAS (r =.43, p =.002) but not between hypnotizability and RSMS (r =.070, p =.631). These results suggest that a protective self-presentation style may incline certain individuals to cooperate with hypnotic suggestions. © 2013 Copyright International Journal of Clinical and Experimental Hypnosis. | Source Title: | International Journal of Clinical and Experimental Hypnosis | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/124531 | ISSN: | 00207144 | DOI: | 10.1080/00207144.2013.753830 |
