In an experiment of 100 people. Two groups were given medicine to help the symptoms of a cold. 50 was given the real stuff and the other 50 people were given food coloring. 32 people in the group that was given the real stuff stated that their symptoms improved. 15 people in the second group also reported that they had improved symptoms. Explain why.

They said that because in their head they felt bad so when they got the medicine or non-medicine they thought they had gotten better because it was all in their heads or maybe there is something in foodcoloring that helps a cold.
CAUSE THEY GAVE THEM SOME FAKE medicine .
This happened because they might have known they were getting better so it might have occured naturally that they wre getting better.
Because the people in group B phsycologicaly thought they were sick but weren’t.
The 15 people thought they were better because there mind was tricked into believing they were taking the real stuff. They were better but in truth they became well on there own.
The people in group A got real medicine and there colds really got better but the people in group B got fake medicine so the ones whos symtoms went away probibly never really had a cold .
The people who weren’t getting the medicine thought they were. This caused them to feel as if they were getting better. They were actually imagining it because they thought they were taking the medicine.
The people in Group B thought they were really getting better so they experienced symptoms even though they didn’t really take the medicene.
If the other 15 thought they had to the real one so they stoped because they thought it was working and the other 15 use the real one
The 15 people in group B We’re tricked into thinking they were geting the real stuff so they phycotically got better but realy did’nt, or thier minds were tricked into thinking they got better
They thought they were getting better cause they were thinking they had the real stuff.
In group B they thought the got the real medicine, but got food colaring. Which made them believe they were cure.
because in group a it was real
and in group b it was in there head
Group A was getting the actual thing so they were really feeling better, but some people in Group B said they were getting better because they thought they had the real thing.
When they were taking the real thing it might of helped. he people taking the non-medicine might of thought that the medicine was so good that it cured them when it was all in their minds.
They move them because it to much peole living in the commutity
Because they were the control group.
They were the ones in the controlled group and it was just all in their head that they thought they were getting better.
The people in the second group might have taken medicine at home just in case they new they weren’t given the real stuff.
The people in group b werent actually sick so when they got the fake medicine they thought they were getting better.

The 15 people thought they were cured and pain and sickness is nothing but thoughts so they felt better.
the first group 36 people said it was a little bit better because they had the cream.but the other group 15 people thought they felt better because there minds thought they had the medison and mad them feel better.
The people in group B mentally thought that they were getting the real stuff.
Well the people with medicine got the real medicine so they thought just to believe in the medicine to do the work. and the people that did not get the real medicine thought that the medicine was working but there was no medicine.
The people in group a got real medicine and there colds got better.The people in group b thought they were getting the real medicine when they wernt. so the people in group b that colds got better probably never had a real cold
The people in group A got the real medicine so there colds got better. The people in group B got fake medicine so they probably though that they had medicane which made them mentally better.
The people in the control group, the one that was faked, thought they had the real stuff therefore they thought they were experiencing symptoms
Because of the placebo effect.
The 15 people in the food coloring group got better because they were told that it was cold medicine so they believed that that was what they were taking.
it was in there minds that theywere get the good medican but still got better.
group b though there were getting the realy medison but it was food coloring amd so they were cured
The second group of fifty people thought they were getting the real stuff so their brain thought they would feel better and they did even though it was just food coloring that they recieved.
the control group thought that they were given the right thing so they acted as if they were given the right thing.
1.) It was in there minds that theywere get the good medican but still got better.
