Description

For sample adults in 2002 and 2007, HYPEV reports whether the person had ever seen a provider or practitioner for hypnosis. Those who answered affirmatively were asked whether they had used hypnosis in the past 12 months (HYPYR). In 2007, information was also collected on the use of hypnosis by sample children in the past year.

HYPEV is part of a series of variables from the 2002 and 2007 supplements on Complementary and Alternative Medicine. In those years, respondents were asked about their use of hypnosis and 15 other modalities of alternative medicine. For more information about the Alternative Health supplements, see ACUYR. For more information about the full range of variables related to hypnosis, including definitions, see HYPYR.
