Are we sure the emotional tone comes from the subjects, not the method?
Weiss reports strong feelings during hypnotic regression.
But does that prove regressors are naturally more emotional?
Maybe the induction itself amplifies affect.
What about participants who refuse hypnosis? They are excluded, skewing the sample.
Has the study been peer reviewed? Independent labs replicate it?
Without replication, claims remain tentative.
We need transparent data, clear controls, and a broader participant pool.
Otherwise the conclusions feel selective, not definitive.
Could personality assessments prior to hypnosis reveal baseline emotionality? If so, they would help separate trait effects from state‑induced responses, strengthening any causal inference for research.
