Abstract
This article demonstrates similarities in psychophysiologic phenomena found in Multiple Personality Disorder (MPD), individuals using hypnosis, and others who did not use hypnosis. The areas discussed are: allergic responses, dermatologic reactions, effects on the autonomic nervous system, seizure disorders, pain control, and healing. Examples from multiple personality cases are paralleled by citations of related phenomena from the hypnosis literature. Some possible unifying concepts for these parallels are discussed.Keywords
