Tupelo3,

Thank you for your comments.

Whatever "the point of the analysis" presented in the paper, it also contains measurements of the size of the placebo effect. I think I've used these correctly to support the point of my analysis that placebos can have a substantial effect on PwPs.

Why not take the benefits that placebos have to offer?

Why not engineer placebos to be even more effective?

John
