title: [Human inheritability of hypnotizability].
abstract: The study of hypnotizability of 1392 individuals proved the known statistical regularity in the men distribution on their hypnotizability degree. It is found that about 80% of subjects are characterized by the entering into the first stage of hypnoidal state, and about 25% of subjects--into the second and third stages. The research of hypnotizability of 60 pairs of twins revealed 78.3% of concordance on this feature, which proves the hypothesis about hereditable nature of hypnotizability. We have established the percent of hypnotizability of twins with common living to be higher than an appropriate value of twins with separate living. According to modern data the probable hereditary mechanism of hypnotizability is sex controlled by an autosomal gene with incomplete penetrance.
