Study flow chart. During session 1, a total of 55 healthy participants were exposed to the RHI paradigm in the normal waking state and screened for the presence of the illusion (agreement scores ≥ 1 on the Likert scale). Forty-seven RHI-responders were enrolled in the study, 4 of which dropped out because of personal reasons. During session 2, 43 participants were evaluated for level of hypnotic suggestibility. Three participants had medium scores and were excluded from further testing. The 40 remaining participants were categorized as either High-responders (N = 21) or Low-responders (N = 19). During session 3, they were exposed to the RHI paradigm in the hypnotic state.
