这份简短报告的目的是确定接受催眠治疗以缓解潮热的女性的意象偏好。作为一项更大规模研究的一部分,51 名乳腺癌幸存者被要求确定他们对减少潮热的图像的个人偏好。大多数参与者都认为个人形象与酷有关;没有一个参与者选择温暖或炎热的图像。使用最广泛的是涉及与凉爽相关的水的图像(27.0%)。建议临床医生在使用催眠来减少潮热时注意患者的偏好,因为特定的意象可能会调节催眠对潮热的有效性。
The purpose of this brief report is to identify imagery preferences of women receiving hypnotherapy to alleviate hot flashes. As part of a larger study, 51 breast cancer survivors were asked to identify their own personal preferences for imagery for reducing hot flashes. Most of the participants identified personal imagery associated with coolness; none of the participants selected imagery for warmth or heat. The most widely used was imagery involving water associated with coolness (27.0%). It is recommended that clinicians using hypnosis for reduction of hot flashes attend to patients' preferences as specific imagery may moderate the effectiveness of hypnosis for hot flashes.
