The purpose of this study was to assess hypnotizability using the Harvard Group Scale of Hypnotic Susceptibility, Form A (HGSHS:A), and the Stanford Hypnotic Susceptibility Scale, Form C (SHSS:C) with African American college students. There were 103 African American undergraduate students participating in this study. Like a previous study by Sapp and Hitchcock (2001), the Inner Subjective Experiences method for scoring the HGSHS:A produced more reliable results than the standard scoring system. The SHSS:C and the Inner Subjective Experiences Scale for the SHSS:C both produced reliable results, and point estimates for coefficient alphas for the SHSS:C and Inner Subjective Experiences did not differ from values obtained for European American college students.
