title: [Attitude of hysterical patients to an experimental situation].
abstract: The article analyses the way in which hysterical patients' attitude to an experimental situation affects the results of an experiment. It has been assumed that depending on the nature of an experiment and the motivational content of the stimulating material the patients' attitude toward the experiment will also change. Comparison of the above attitudes in different variants of technique denoted as "the level of claims" has made it possible to characterize the specificity of hysterical patients' motivation expressed in excessively high claims and maintenance of inadequate self-assessment. The data obtained in the course of the experiment allow certain conclusions while determining the means to study the psychological syndrome in this group of patients.
