The moderating effects of tension-reduction alcohol outcome expectancies on placebo responding in individuals with social phobia
Article Abstract:
Individuals with social phobia were asked to give a speech in front of a group before and after consuming a placebo beverage, so that the varying responses to the manipulations in alcohol-placebo studies which were produced due to the individual differences in tension-reduction alcohol outcome expectancies (TR-AOEs) could be tested. After the consumption of the placebo-beverage, men with strong TR-AOEs experienced a greater reduction in negative evaluation and distress as compared to the men with weak TR-AOEs.
