Full
GURPS says, from B420: "
Mental Stun: If you are surprised, you might be
mentally stunned; see
Surprise Attacks and Initiative (p. 393). This sort of stunning works as described above, but you must make an IQ roll, not a HT roll, to snap out of it. You’re not hurt – you’re confused!" (Italics in the original.)

I would use Will to snap out of stun caused by being mentally unhinged, IQ to snap out of stun caused by being mentally uncollected, and HT to snap out of stun caused by physical trauma.
