RE: Let's talk about The Placebo Effect

in #steemstem7 years ago

This is a really cool topic. The same happens with WiFi. There are some funny studies where a person sits in a room with a WiFi router that is either on with lights blinking, on with no lights blinking, off with lights blinking, or off with no lights blinking. The negative response that the people in the room report is entirely due to whether they think the router is on (blinking lights) and has nothing to do with whether it is actually producing WiFi.

Sort:  

I am not surprised by that fact as there are studies from different topics about people reacting to different things and then testing on them if they actually know it or not. I have seen some of tests like this and they have never really felt the thing they should. These have been regarding "electricity allergy" and such. It is no surprise they have never succeeded-

Humans are funny things, huh?
