Annette Shuck, a professor in the Division of Education at the University of the Virgin Islands, will present a paper entitled "Suggestions in Education" at the International Congress of Hypnosis of the International Society of Hypnosis at Ludwig Maximillians University in Munich, Germany.
The conference, which will take place Oct. 2-7, is only the 15th held on hypnosis since the society was founded in 1889.
Shuck's presentation is compiled from her pioneering, ongoing research, which was first published in Psychological Reports, April 1984, entitled "Effects of Suggestibility on Learning by Retarded and Non-Retarded Students." In addition, Dr. Shuck is the author of the chapter "Suggestion in Education," in "Human Suggestibility," by John F. Schumaker.
