Bonjour à tous.
Hier, je suis tombé par hasard sur l'article suivant - fort intéressant - et qui a retenu mon attention:
«BRAIN SCANS SHOW HOW HYPNOSIS CAN PARALYZE A LIMB»
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_sci_paralyzed_by_hypnosis
L'article de Yahoo cite comme référence le site web de la revue Neuron mais je n'ai pas réussi à trouver l'article original sur le site en question.
http://www.cell.com/neuron/
Si quelqu'un - JF par exemple - réussit à dénicher l'article original sur le web, j'aimerais assez qu'il nous en indique l'adresse URL.
Voici un court extrait d'un autre lien traitant du même sujet (toutes mes excuses pour l'anglais).
"IMAGING THE HYPNOTIZED BRAIN: NEURAL MECHANISMS OF SUGGESTED PARALYSIS"
«...A group of researchers from the Neuroscience Center and Medical School at the University of Geneva designed an experiment to assess motor and inhibitory brain circuits during hypnosis-induced paralysis. "We used functional magnetic resonance imaging to directly test whether a hypnotic suggestion of paralysis activates specific inhibitory processes and whether these may or may not correspond to those responsible for inhibition in nonhypnotic conditions," explains lead study author Dr. Yann Cojan...
...
«...The researchers conclude that hypnosis induces a disconnection of motor commands from normal voluntary processes under the influence of brain circuits involved in executive control and self imagery. "These results suggest that hypnosis may enhance self-monitoring processes to allow internal representations generated by the suggestion to guide behavior but does not act through direct motor inhibition," says Dr. Cojan. "These findings make an important new step towards establishing neurobiological foundations for the striking impact of hypnosis on the brain and behavior."
The researchers include Yann Cojan, University of Geneva, Geneva, Switzerland; Lakshmi Waber, University Hospital Geneva, Geneva, Switzerland; Sophie Schwartz, University of Geneva, Geneva, Switzerland; Laurent Rossier, University of Fribourg, Fribourg, Switzerland; Alain Forster, University Hospital Geneva, Geneva, Switzerland; and Patrik Vuilleumier, University of Geneva, Geneva, Switzerland...»
