Abstract
Suggestion has played a crucial role in psychiatric healing for thousands of years. The nature of suggestion as a psychological phenomenon is not understood. Unless the riddle is solved, a synthesis between the various schools of psychology is unlikely. The crucial variables must be related in a manner that is meaningful to both psychoanalysts and social-oriented investigators.Abstract Teaser
