Which of the following statements is correct concerning what hypnosis can NOT do?

a) Hypnosis cannot create amnesia.

b) Hypnosis cannot regress people back to childhood.

c) Hypnosis cannot alter sensory perceptions.

d) Hypnosis cannot improve memory.

The correct answer for this question is option C.

Explanation:

Since hypnosis is a human condition which involved the attention to reduce the peripheral awareness, to enhanced the capacity to respond to suggestion is correct, concerning what hypnosis cannot do, to say that through hypnosis someone cannot alter his/her sensory perceptions. Besides, some "hypnotizers" state that the only way hypnosis works to improve, or alter sensory perceptions is because the "client" have the willing to do it. Furthermore, psychiatrists know and understand the general features of hypnosis, and they have built some models of how it works. For example, they see hypnosis like a trance where there are extreme suggestibility, relaxation and heightened imagination. Thus, there is not any evidence that hypnosis cannot alter sensory perception. It does.
