"Positive hallucinations

the hyptnotised subject, in the absence of appropriate physical stimuli, is
able, under suggestion, to exercise his imagination so vividly that he is
able to perceive and interact with objects that are not there."
-The Experience Of Hypnosis by Ernest R. Hilgard

"The factor of time in hypnosis induction

the rapidity with which hypnosis can be induced in a new subject has
much to do with the skill with which the 'sleep' suggestions are timed."
-Hypnotic Power by Colin Bennet

"One of the forms of subconscious suggestion is verbal..."

"A compound or loose metaphor is one that catches the mind with several points of similarity. Examples: 'He has the wild stag's foot.'

What makes belief revision non-trivial is that several different ways for performing this operation may be possible.

Many revision proposals involve orderings over models representing the
relative plausibility of the possible alternatives. The problem of merging
amounts to combine a set of orderings into a single one expressing the
combined plausibility of the alternatives. This is similar with what is done
in social choice theory, which is the study of how the preferences of a
group of agents can be combined in a rational way. Belief revision and
social choice theory are similar in that they combine a set of orderings
into one. They differ on how these orderings are interpreted: preferences
in social choice theory; plausibility in belief revision. Another difference is
that the alternatives are explicitly enumerated in social choice theory,
while they are the propositional models over a given alphabet in belief revision.

treatment. Precious lives, and somethimes more precious peace of mind,
may be sacrificed by holding back from action just as much as by doing the wrong thing...."
