Influence of suggestion and subjects' prior knowledge in research on sensory deprivation.

Several investigators have reported that normal human subjects placed in a dark, quiet room for several hours undergo a variety of hallucinatory experiences; these are typically attributed to extended periods of reduced sensory input. In the present experiment, similarly dramatic subjective experiences occurred within 1 hour when subjects were told of the possibility and appropriateness of such phenomena.
