Abstract
Self-regulation therapy (Amigo, 1992) is a set of procedures derived f rom cognitive skill training programs for increasing hypnotizability. First, experiences are generated by actual stimuli. Clients are then a sked to associate those experiences with various cues. They are then r equested to generate the experiences in response to the cues, but with out the actual stimuli. When they are able to do so quickly and easily , therapeutic suggestions are given. Studies of self-regulation therap y indicate that it can be used successfully to treat smoking.
