Abstract2 studies are reported, one using hypnotized Ss selected on hypnotizability and one using Ss selected on imagery vividness, whose purpose is to examine whether non-patient Ss can control their bleeding in a laboratory setting. All Ss were cut on both arms with the "Surgicutt" device, an instrument that automatically makes a cut that will bleed from 2 to 10 minutes. Results suggest that Ss, who are instructed to reduce the bleeding time in one arm and to let the other arm bleed normally, are not able to control bleeding time.
