Placebo:
A psychological perspective

Explore our lecture on “Placebo: A psychological perspective” with Professor John Raglin. In this session, John examines how placebo and nocebo effects should be understood in sport, why they are more than simply “nothing,” and how beliefs, expectations, and the wider psychosocial context can shape responses to supplements and performance interventions. The lecture also explores how different experimental designs influence the size of placebo effects and why understanding expectation is essential for both research and applied practice in sport psychology and sports nutrition.

What we will cover:

What are placebo and nocebo effects in sport?

What are the contemporary versus traditional views of placebo?

How do experimental designs influence the placebo effects?

What is the role of expectation play in responses to supplements?
How can placebo and nocebo influence athletic performance?
