Biofeedback and the placebo effect
1982
This article reviews the role of positive expectations, including those engendered by placebos, in symptom relief following medical and surgical procedures, and psychotherapy. Viewing biofeedback as instrument-aided psychotherapy, its procedures are considered in the light of their ability to mobilize the same healing forces as all forms of psychotherapy, with some implications for promising directions of biofeedback research.
