Footnotes

1) Braid's first use of the term "hypnotism" occurred in 1842 (Braid 1842). He accepted some of the phenomena of magnetic sleep and dismissed others. For a discussion of the relationship between hypnotism and animal magnetism, see Crabtree 1993.

2) See Crabtree 1985. The history of multiple personality from 1791 onward is a subject far beyond the scope of this paper. The first one hundred years of that history and its relationship to other dissociative conditions is discussed at some length in Crabtree 1993.
Charcot's position was most clearly articulated by his co-worker Paul Richer (Richer 1885, pp. 505 ff.).

3) A more detailed description of thinking about dissociation in this period may be found in Crabtree 1986.

4) The rise of a state-dependent model for memory also goes a long way to bridge the gap between those who operate within a psychodynamic psychotherapeutic framework, accepting the notion of a subconscious or unconscious sphere of mental activity, and those who are more cognitively oriented. An important gap-closing study in this area is Bowers and Meichenbaum 1984.

5) Ross was not the first to draw attention to the problematical cultural dimensions of dissociation. See, for example, Smith 1989.
