Abstract

16 male and female volunteers were equally divided into hypnotized and relaxed groups. During hypnosis, or relaxation, telepathic communication of postcard-size reproductions of famous art objects was attempted by staff personnel. Following this, all Ss napped or rested. In both instances Ss recalled their imagery or dreams. Finally, both groups reported dream content 1 wk. after the attempted telepathy, and results suggest that: (1) 1 person\'s thoughts may find their way into another person\'s imagery, and (2) hypnosis may speed up this "telepathic processing."
