827 – Suggestibility in persons with schizophrenia - 09/07/13
Résumé |
Aim |
Study of suggestibility in persons with schizophrenia to ascertain whether it is advisable to use hypno-suggestive methods in the system of psychotherapeutic help to them.
Method |
As a method of study we used Barber's Creative Imagination Scale. To subjects of the experimental group this method was applied from 2 to 5 times, during 6 months.
Main results |
In the experimental group the subjects have been distributed in the following way:
(0) | lack of suggestibility - 12.68%; |
(1) | weak degree of suggestibility - 20.56%; |
(2) | average degree of suggestibility - 13.8%; |
(3) | high degree of suggestibility - 24.51%; |
(4) | very high degree of suggestibility - 28.45%. |
In the control group we have obtained the following percentage distribution of subjects:
(0) | lack of suggestibility - 6.76%; |
(1) | weak degree of suggestibility - 17.18%; |
(2) | average degree of suggestibility - 22.25%; |
(3) | high degree of suggestibility - 27.89%; |
(4) | very high degree of suggestibility - 25.92%. |
We also have studied changeableness of suggestibility during 6 months in the experimental group: invariable indices of suggestibility were shown by 27.95% of subjects; 37.26% of subjects had slight changeableness; suggestibility was considerably changed in 26.09% of subjects; and radical change was obtained in 8.7% of subjects.
Conclusion |
The obtained results point to the advisability of applying hypno-suggestive methods in the system of psychotherapeutic help of individuals suffering from schizophrenia.
