When hypnotized subjects are told that they are deaf and are then asked whether they can hear the hypnotist,they reply, "No." Some theorists try to explain this result by arguing that the selves of hypnotized subjects aredissociated into separate parts, and that the part that is deaf is dissociated from the part that replies. Which of the following challenges indicates the most serious weakness in the attempted explanationdescribed above?
(A) Why does the part that replies not answer, "Yes"?
(B) Why are the observed facts in need of any special explanation?
(C) Why do the subjects appear to accept the hypnotist's suggestion that they are deaf?
(D) Why do hypnotized subjects all respond the same way in the situation described?
(E) Why are the separate parts of the self the same for all subjects?
Argument Evaluation
Situation Reasoning
People under hypnosis are told they are deaf. When asked by the hypnotist if they canhear, they hear the question and respond, "No." A theory explains this puzzling result bystating that the hypnotized subjects dissociate the part of themselves that is deaf from thepart that replies to the question.此处不太理解 Which question points toa weakness in the theory? According to the theory, hypnotizedpeople dissociate themselves into separate parts: the hearing part and the deaf part. Then,they must be using the hearing part of themselves when they respond to the hypnotist'squestion; obviously, if they were using the deaf part of themselves at that point, theywould not hear or thus respond at all. So, if they are using the hearing part of themselves,as the theorists maintain, why would they respond "No" to the question, "Can you hearme?" The hearing part would more logically answer "Yes."
A Correct. This statement properly identifies a challenge that demonstrates the weakness in thetheory.
B This question does not address a weakness in the explanation; instead it asks why there needs tobe an explanation at all.
C The theorists' explanation, iftrue,canhelp answer thisquestion, sothischallenge does notindicate a weakness.
D The theorists' explanation, if true, can help answer this question, so this challenge does notindicate a weakness.
E The theorists' explanation does not address why the parts of the self are the same for all subjects,so this question does not get to a weakness of their argument.
