    Hypnosis enhances figural-spatial creativity in individuals regardless of their hypnotic suggestibility. However, self-perceived creativity did not align with actual performance, suggesting a disconnect between subjective and objective measures.

    Area of Science:

    • Psychology
    • Cognitive Science
    • Neuroscience

    Background:

    • Hypnotic suggestibility varies among individuals.
    • Creativity is a complex cognitive function.
    • The relationship between hypnosis and creativity requires further investigation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To examine the effect of hypnosis on creativity.
    • To compare creativity levels in hypnotic versus waking states.
    • To assess the influence of hypnotic suggestibility on creative performance.

    Main Methods:

    • Participants were categorized as high or low in hypnotic suggestibility.
    • Creativity was assessed using a creativity test under hypnosis and waking conditions.
    • Subjects provided self-estimates of their general creativity.

    Main Results:

    • Both high and low hypnotic suggestible individuals demonstrated greater figural-spatial creativity under hypnosis compared to a waking state.
    • Self-reported creativity levels did not correlate with objective creative performance.
    • Hypnosis appears to facilitate creative output, particularly in figural-spatial domains.

    Conclusions:

    • Hypnosis can enhance specific aspects of creativity, such as figural-spatial abilities.
    • Subjective creativity assessments may not accurately reflect objective performance.
    • Future research should explore the mechanisms underlying hypnosis-induced creativity enhancement.
