Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from La Suggestibilit�
J'ai observ� bien souvent que l'esprit de contradiction est tr�s d�velopp� chez des personnes nerveuses, auxquelles on donne l'obsession d'un acte, rien qu'en les mettant au d�fi de l'accomplir. Pitres signale avec raison les hyst�riques comme des sujets qu'on peut souvent suggestionner a fond, en les prenant par l'esprit de contradiction. Je crois bien que la ten dance a contredire n'est pas n�cessairement un indice de personnalit� bien organis�e et capable de r�sister ii la suggestion.
