In this paper led by @madelinestein.bsky.social we outline how suggestion effects can act as a salient confound in psychedelic experiments/trials (eg one certain NEJM trial ... see paper). We also note how suggestion effects can be harnessed in valuable ways in this domain.

Loneliness needs to be treated as a societal issue, not just one that required psychological interventions, argues IoPPN's @kathrynbates.bsky.social in @uk.theconversation.com #IoPPNInTheNews #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek theconversation.com/why-loneline...

Why loneliness should be treated as a social issue
Fighting loneliness means more than self-help. It means rebuilding the social fabric – with spaces, services and support for everyone.

Great to see this finally out. In this multi-level meta-analysis @madelinestein.bsky.social very carefully distinguished between different types of #suggestion effects and different types of administration methods in the #nocebo literature. A number of familiar findings but also some surprises!

Any woman who has ever received online abuse has some understanding of what Jess Philips is now exposed to, but it is on an entirely different level. It is dangerous to her safety. Yes, it is diplomatically “delicate”. But if you do nothing it is an admission of your own impotence. A capitulation.
