Hypnosis enhances the confidence people have in their memories, regardless of their accuracy or inaccuracy.

Hypnosis can increase the confidence people have in their memories, even if those memories are false or inaccurate. This is known as the "hypnotic confidence effect." Studies have shown that hypnosis can lead individuals to recall details with more certainty, vividness, and elaboration than they would have without hypnosis. However, this does not necessarily mean that the memories are accurate or reliable. It is important to be cautious when relying on memories recalled under hypnosis.
