“…While still less studied, progress has been made for placebo effects on other modalities such as depression (Leuchter et al, 2002; Mayberg et al, 2002), negative (Koban et al, in revision; Meyer et al, 2015; Petrovic et al, 2005; Rütgen et al, 2015; Schienle et al, 2014), and positive emotions (Ellingsen et al, 2013) as well. Parallel to placebo studies on pain, these studies suggest reductions in areas associated with emotional experience such as ACC and AI (Petrovic et al, 2005; Rütgen et al, 2015; Schienle et al, 2014), and often associated increased activations in prefrontal regions including OFC and dlPFC (Benedetti, 2014; Koban et al, in revision; Mayberg et al, 2002; Petrovic et al, 2005).…”
