Description

For sample adults age 18+ in 2007 who had seen a practitioner for hypnosis in the past 12 months (HYPYR) and had used hypnosis to treat a specific health problem or condition (HYPTREAT), HYPTOTH3 indicates whether the person had used hypnosis to treat other 3.

Related Variables

Other 3 was one of 57 possible specific conditions that sample adults (but not sample children) could report treating with hypnosis.

 

The other such conditions are:

  • excessive use of alcohol or tobacco (HYPTALCTOB, 2007 only)
  • anemia and blood disorders--adults (HYPTBLOOD, 2007 only)
  • coronary heart disease (HYPTCORON, 2007 only)
  • other nerve damage, CTS (HYPTCTS, 2007 only)
  • benign tumors or cysts (HYPTCYST, 2007 only)
  • dementia including Alzheimer's disease (HYPTDEMENT, 2007 only)
  • fracture or joint injury (HYPTFRACT, 2007 only)
  • gynecologic problem (HYPTGYN, 2007 only)
  • inflammatory bowel disease (HYPTINFB, 2007 only)
  • stomach or intestinal illness (HYPTINTEST, 2007 only)
  • poor circulation in legs (HYPTLCIRC, 2007 only)
  • memory loss or loss of other cognitive function (HYPTMEMLOS, 2007 only)
  • other allergies--adults (HYPTOALLA, 2007 only)
  • other infectious diseases (HYPTOINF, 2007 only)
  • osteoporosis or tendinitis (HYPTOSTEO, 2007 only)
  • Rheumatoid arthritis (HYPTRHEUM, 2007 only)
  • skin problems (adults) (HYPTSKINA, 2007 only)
  • substance abuse, other than alcohol or tobacco (HYPTSUBST, 2007 only)

Additionally, there are 30 other conditions that both sample adults and sample children could report treating with hypnosis. For the full list of conditions, see HYPTREAT.

Hypnosis is one of 16 modalities of alternative medicine that were included in the 2002 and 2007 Alternative Health Supplements. In both 2002 and 2007, information about hypnosis was collected on many topics (such as the cost of treatment); however, only the 2007 survey included questions about using hypnosis to treat a standard list of specific conditions. (See HYPYR for more information.)

For most of the alternative health treatment modalities, the treatment of other 3 was reported for both 2002 and 2007. For two of the modalities--hypnosis and movement techniques--treatment of other 3 (and 115 other conditions) was included in 2007 only. (See MOVALEXYR for more information.) For one modality--prayer--treatment of other 3 (and 73 other conditions) was reported in 2002 only. (See PRASELFEV for more information.) Analysts interested in the treatment of other 3 by alternative therapies other than hypnosis should see HYPYR for the full list of alternative medicine treatments, as well as for a summary of hypnosis-related questions and definitions.

Comparability

HYPTOTH3 is only available for 2007. Sample adults were asked about their use of most of the alternative health modalities to treat other 3 in 2002, but they were not asked about using hypnosis to treat other 3 or most other specific health conditions in 2002.
