Question 7 • Psychology - EL2084

Which of the following statements about the technique of hypnotic regression is not true?

Answer
A
Recovered memories are not reliable.
B
Courts often depend upon recovered memories.
C
Memories may be planted by the hypnotist.
D
The process may create stress for the subject.

Explanation

Hypnotic regression can produce memories that are unreliable or influenced by suggestion, and the process may cause stress. A hypnotist may also unintentionally plant or shape details through leading suggestions. Courts generally do not depend on memories recovered through hypnosis because of these reliability concerns, so “Courts often depend upon recovered memories” is not true.
