How instructions, learning, and expectations shape pain and clinical outcomes

2022-10-31

Abstract excerpt

<p>Treatment outcomes are strongly influenced by expectations, as evidenced by the placebo effect. Placebo effects are strongest in pain, indicating that psychosocial factors directly influence pain. In this review, I focus on the neural and psychological mechanisms by which instructions, learning, and expectations shape subjective pain. I address new experimental designs that help researchers tease apart the impa...
