Question

Anthony’s therapist is using hypnosis to help him recall the night he was supposedly abducted by aliens. Danny’s therapist is using hypnosis to help him prepare for the pain of dental surgery because Danny is allergic to the dentist’s painkillers. Patrick’s therapist is using hypnosis to help him quit drinking and smoking. Which client has the highest chance for success? A. Anthony
B. Danny
C. Patrick
D. All three can benefit from hypnosis since each technique is proven effective.

Answer 1

Answer:

B). Danny.

Explanation:

As per the given description, Danny has the most probable chances of success as his therapist uses hypnosis(extremely focused concentration) that would help him to remain relaxed during the time of dental surgery as his entire concentration or focus would be devoted to a specific thing. Thus, he would not be able to experience pain while undergoing surgery and feel relaxed. Therefore, Danny has the most probable chances of being successful as the others are either using the method inappropriately or for an inappropriate cause('recall the night he was supposedly abducted by aliens'). Hence, option B is the correct answer.
