Abstract
The length of time required to induce successive hypnotic trances in 6 S's decreased from a mean of 432 seconds on the first trance to 106 seconds on the tenth trance. With a period of no practice there was a loss in the susceptibility to the trance. The time necessary to induce trance again decreased when practice was resumed. Eyelid catalepsy was used as a test of the trance in the first three trails. Time was taken from the start of the suggestion to the complete closure of the eyes.
