<reasoning>

Analyze factors influencing hypnotic susceptibility

• Hypnosis requires focused attention, cooperation, and a willingness to be hypnotized.
• Louis has Alzheimer's disease, which impairs cognitive functions and sustained attention.
• Olivia does not want to be hypnotized, and voluntary cooperation is essential for successful hypnosis.
• Frank has attention deficit disorder, making sustained focus and concentration difficult.

Evaluate the remaining candidate

• Alice is a healthy 30-year-old with no cognitive, attentional, or motivational barriers.
• She possesses the capacity for sustained attention and cooperation required for high hypnotic susceptibility.
