Answer:
The sociocognitive theory of hypnosis posits that individuals who are highly suggestible are simply responding to waking imaginative suggestions.
Explanation:
- According to the sociocognitive theory, the state of hypnosis is merely a state in which the individual who is said to have been hypnotized is imagining the suggestions given to him with utter concentration.
- The theory proposes that the process of hypnotism is not efficient enough to alter the pattern of consciousness or change it to a directable mode.
