We investigate whether a 2D Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) trained on minimally preprocessed EEG signals can classify hypnotic susceptibility across distinct brain regions. Sixty-two male participants (32 Control, 30 Guided Imagery / Hipno group) underwent a 20-minute EEG recording using a 256-channel EGI cap. A sliding-window approach evaluates all 10-second windows within the recording for each of seven predefined brain regions (prefrontal, frontal, temporal, central, parietal, occipital, and facial), yielding up to 868 independently trained models. Initial screening with a segment-level 90/10 random split showed that five regions exceeded the 0.67 accuracy threshold, with the occipital region achieving the highest mean accuracy (0.721) across 90.3% of windows. Subject-independent evaluation via Leave-One-Subject-Out (LOSO) cross-validation, however, substantially revised this picture: occipital performance collapsed to near-chance (mean ACC 0.453, AUC 0.429), revealing that high random-split accuracy was driven by subject-specific EEG fingerprints rather than genuine group differences. In contrast, the frontal and prefrontal regions maintained above-chance LOSO accuracy (0.646 and 0.624, respectively), demonstrating genuine generalisability. These results underscore the necessity of subject-independent validation in EEG-based classification studies and highlight anterior cortical regions as more reliable neural markers of hypnotic susceptibility.
