This study was designed to clarify the rather elusive nature of hypnotic susceptibility by examining its relationship to Jungian personality types and vividness of mental imagery. The results evidenced minimal and nonsignificant relationships among all variables for the total sample of subjects. However, since there was a significant difference between mean scores of 22 males and 33 females on hypnotic susceptibility, a further examination of these relationships was undertaken within each sex. Once again, neither personality type nor mental imagery correlated significantly with hypnotic susceptibility for either sex. However, a rather interesting relationship emerged between the measures of extraversion and mental imagery for the male subjects.

In an extension of previous studies, 88 presumably normal Ss were given the Draw-A-Person Test and were asked to make Semantic Differential ratings of their same-sex and opposite-sex figure drawings, as well as their real, ideal, and least-liked selves. Significant positive correlations were found between same-sex figure ratings and ratings of both real self and ideal self, and there was a significant negative correlation between ratings of same-sex figure drawings and ratings of least-liked self. There were no significant correlations between ratings of opposite-sex figure drawings and actual, ideal, or least-liked self ratings. Thus a significant relationship among three components of self-concept and normal Ss' perceptions of their human figure drawings emerged, but only for same-sex figures.
