Where the Wikipedia article seems to fall down is that assertions are often made that aren't backed up by references. A reasonable place to start therefore seems to be with the results of published studies - and ideally with systematic reviews where there is enough to go on. Titles (and often abstracts) for most published hypnosis research is available from http://www.hypnosis-research.org

Where the Wikipedia article seems to fall down is that assertions are often made that aren't backed up by references. A reasonable place to start therefore seems to be with the results of published studies - and ideally with systematic reviews where there is enough to go on. Titles (and often abstracts) for most published hypnosis research is available from http://www.hypnosis-research.org Ideas about structure for the article:
