Suggestibility enhancement can be described as an increase in one's quality of being inclined to accept and act on the suggestions of others. This component commonly occurs under the influence of hallucinogens, particularly for those who are inexperienced or currently undergoing delusions and memory suppression. A typical example of suggestibility enhancement would be a trip sitter making a person believe something false without question simply by telling it to them as true, even if the statement would usually be easily recognizable as impossible or absurd. If this is successfully accomplished, it can potentially result in the experience of relevant accompanying hallucinations and delusions which further solidify the belief which has been suggested to them.
It is worth noting that this component has been studied extensively by the scientific literature and has a relatively large body of data confirming its presence across multiple hallucinogens. For example, LSD[1][2], mescaline[3], cannabis[4], ketamine[5] and nitrous oxide[6] have each been demonstrated to significantly increase suggestibility.
