The Imagination Inventory and its correlates with imagery and hypnotizability
1Jagiellonian University, Poland.
Abstract:
Presented are two studies designed to establish the psychometric properties (Study 1) of the Imagination Inventory (II; Barber and Wilson, 1979), and (Study 2) to examine the relation between subscales derived by factor analysis and measures of hypnotizability: (HGSHS:A; Shor and Orne, 1962), and the Depth of Hypnosis Index (DHI), as well as waking imagination (CIS; Wilson and Barber, 1978). Testing a sample of 459 Polish students, it was found that rationally derived scales developed by Barber and Wilson (1979) failed to parallel the factor structure derived from empirical procedure. The cross-cultural validity of the II was supported by low-to-moderate correlations with the HGSHS:A and the CIS.
