催眠疗法在临床环境中用于治疗精神和身体健康相关的疾病。催眠反应可以通过催眠能力量表来测量，以帮助干预者个性化治疗计划，以适应患者的个性化催眠能力。这些量表的例子是埃尔金斯催眠量表（EHS）和斯坦福大学催眠易感性量表，C型（SHSS：C）。根据以往的文献，这些量表在大学样本中具有良好的区分能力和内部一致性（α = 0.85），但EHS对目标临床人群的心理测量学特性尚未确定。本研究评估了上述属性，结果表明EHS在目标临床样本中具有足够的可靠性，EHS对SHSS的收敛效度较强：C。作者得出结论认为，EHS是一种强有力的有用的催眠测量方法，在不同的临床样本中发现，EHS对催眠能力的个体来说是愉快的、安全的、简短的和敏感的。
Hypnotherapy is used in clinical settings to treat mental and physical health-related conditions. Hypnotic response can be measured through hypnotizability scales to help interventionists personalize treatment plans to suit the patients’ individualized hypnotic abilities. Examples of these scales are the Elkins Hypnotizability Scale (EHS) and the Stanford Hypnotic Susceptibility Scale, Form C (SHSS:C). According to the previous literature, these scales have good discriminating ability and internal consistency (α = 0.85) in collegiate samples, but the psychometric properties of the EHS for a targeted clinical population have not been determined yet. This study assessed said properties, and results showed adequate reliability of the EHS in a targeted clinical sample and strong convergent validity of the EHS to the SHSS:C. The authors conclude that the EHS is a strong and useful measure of hypnotizability that is pleasant, safe, brief, and sensible to individualities in hypnotic ability found in diverse clinical samples.
