[Susceptibility to suggestion in patients with hysterical neuroses].
It is common knowledge that patients with hysteric neurosis demonstrate selective suggestibility in respect of different methods of suggestion, namely from high to extremely low. To specify the nature of such selectivity, a study was made of the dependence of hysteric neurosis patients' suggestibility on their personality and typological traits and the clinical manifestations of neurosis. It has been shown that suggestibility of patients suffering from hysteric neurosis depends on the premorbid (hysteroid, excitable and inhibitory) types of the patients' personality and the clinical picture of neurosis. It has been also discovered that patients belonging to the premorbid hysteroid type are most suggestible whereas those belonging to the premorbid inhibitory type are least suggestible.
