An academic study authored in part by Christine Blasey Ford which discusses “creating artificial situations” via memories and hypnosis has been uncovered. Margot Cleveland of The Federalist posted the document which discloses Ford’s theory on “memory retrieval” on her Twitter account this afternoon.
Ford’s paper was titled “Meditation With Yoga, Group Therapy With Hypnosis, and Psychoeducation for Long-Term Depressed Mood: A Randomized Pilot Trial.”
“One of Christine Ford Blasey’s research articles in 2008 included a study in which participants were TAUGHT SELF-HYPNOSIS & noted hypnosis is used to retrieve important memories “AND CREATE ARTIFICAL [sic] SITUATIONS,”
Prior to the now infamous Kavanaugh hearing, Ford’s Internet history was seemingly scrubbed. Cleveland’s discovery of the document is groundbreaking.
Ford’s maiden name was used for authorship on the paper.
Here’s the cover.
Beyond that, we have some meat and potatoes whereas the study teaches a version of “self-hypnosis.”
Following this, the paper concluded that artificial situations could be created through the assistance via “the retrieval of important memories, and create artificial situations that would permit the client to express ego-dystonic emotions in a safe manner.”
The obvious takeaway is that a woman tasked with retrieving decade-old memories was also associated with a memory and hypnosis project. Clearly, there is a lot that feels wrong in this situation, the addition of creepy memory retrieval and artificial situation creation most certainly adds to the extensive menu.
