Suggestibility is one of the personality traits. The ability to accept signals from oneself, another person, or any type of media without feeling obligated to do so, including messages concerning physiological feelings, is referred to as suggestibility. It varies from compliance in that it requires the internalisation of a message rather than just a behavioural change. The study aims to validate the Multidimensional Iowa suggestibility Scale (MISS) developed by Dr Roman Kotov on Indian youth for future use and application. The study’s hypothesis is that the scale will be highly reliable and valid for the Indian population. The original scale established by Dr Roman Kotov consisted of 95 items to be responded to by choosing the appropriate option from five given, which was given to an Indian sample of 510 individuals. The scale includes five suggestibility subscales and two companion scales. To check the validity, inter-scale correlation and reliability was performed. The results have been positive, with high correlations among the subscales, which suggests further future use. MISS, consisting of five subscales of suggestibility and a Short Suggestibility Scale, has been validated and can be used on the Indian population.

The Emotional Contagion Scale (ECS) developed by Dr. Elaine Hatfield, is a self-report measure used to investigate the individual’s susceptibility to catch another person’s emotions and experience the same. The catching of emotions could be conscious or unconscious. The study aims to validate the Emotional Contagion scale on the Indian subcontinent population for future use and application. The original American scale consisted of 15 items to be responded to by selecting the suitable option from given five, was given to an Indian sample of 498 individuals. To check the validity, Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) was performed. Gender differences were assessed and it was observed that men were high on catching and experiencing the emotions of others as compared to women. The Indian sample on ECS shows moderate to high reliability and high content validity. It thus concludes that the Emotional Contagion scale is valid for future use on the Indian Population.
