Psychobiology of the placebo response

Autonomic Neuroscience, 2006
The nature and determinants of the placebo response are widely unknown and are discussed controversially. This review presents a unifying concept for the understanding of the placebo response in clinical trials and practice based on three components: "Regression to the mean", "Pavlovian conditioning", and "Signal detection theory", and discusses the ...

Placebos: A Review of The Placebo Response

American Journal of Gastroenterology, 2000
Placebos have been a component of healing since the beginning. Whether consciously or unconsciously given, they are largely responsible for the success of medicine before randomized trials.

A Placebo Response

Physical Therapy, 1990
To the Editor: Lein et al, responding to Cameron's concern that they had not controlled for placebo effect, seem to miss the point ( Physical Therapy , December 1989, Letters to the Editor, pages 1118–1120). Lein et al say they “designed [their] study1 to advance another step,” based on “accepting the findings” of two studies2,3 in which, by their ...

Conditioned placebo responses.

Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, 1985
Following earlier animal research, we attempt to condition placebo effects in human subjects. Four groups of 8 voluntary subjects were told that the experimenters would test a powerful new analgesic cream over three sessions by assessing its ability to reduce experimentally induced pain. The analgesic cream was, in fact, a placebo. In the first session

Experimental Studies of the Placebo Response

Journal of Mental Science, 1960
The critical evaluation of new drugs or remedies against inert substances or nonspecific procedures has led to the recognition that responses to a placebo are important in their own right. Such responses may be dramatic and persistent and they can be associated with quite definite physiological changes (Wolf and Pinsky, 1954).
