Abstract

This study examined, after discussion with the two coaches, whether hypnosis would improve shooting performance of a group of college basketball players and compared them with a control group of basketball players. Throughout one basketball season 12 male and 12 female basketball players were interviewed prior to individual and group sessions with hypnosis. The athletes shooting scoreswere compared with those of the previous basketball season. The hypnosis groups showed higher cumulative scores for shooting than players in the control group.
