Not illustrated. 1911 Excerpt: ...operative. Table IV represents an attempt to summarize the number of each kind of suggestion, except the visual and kinaesthetic, contained in the series of fragments that were read, silently (See appendix), and to determine the percentage of successful suggestions in each instance. In every case the words of the fragments are taken at their face value, but, even so, there is chance for error in classifying the suggestions. Such chance for error is greater in the case of cutaneous and organic suggestion than in the case of auditory and olfactory, while it seemed impossible to classify the kinaesthetic suggestions so as to distinguish between the suggestion of optical and that of felt kinaesthesis.

The table makes it at once evident that auditory suggestion was more frequently successful than any other form given in the table, while gustatory suggestion was least successful. In the case of every form of suggestion, certain fragments were particularly effective. Thus eleven subjects reacted with auditory imagery to 87, which describes the noise of a waterfall, while ten subjects gave auditory imagery for fragments 11 and 33, both of which are descriptive of the wind. The reports made it very evident that certain auditory images are particularly easy to arouse. The sound of rain and of the bugle-note, the sighing of the wind and the rush of wings, the noise of the surf, the tolling of a bell are imaged without difficulty. For arousal of olfactory images, vague allusions were found to be less effective than were specific suggestions. Thus, if the odor of the violet or hyacinth be suggested, it is more apt to be successful than the vague suggestion contained in the words "field smells...
