• relationship of mind and body
• effect is due to a person's expectations
• relationship between how strongly a
person expects to have results and
whether or not results occur
• The same appears to be true for
negative effects
• The fact that the placebo effect is tied to
expectations doesn't make it imaginary
or fake
