    Area of Science:

    • Psychophysiology
    • Behavioral Medicine
    • Clinical Psychology

    Context:

    • Investigating the immediate psychological impact of Autogenic Training (AT).
    • Analyzing patient emotional responses during the initial learning phase of AT standard exercises.
    • Comparing outcomes between patients undergoing AT and a control group on a waiting list.

    Purpose:

    • To evaluate the immediate effects of Autogenic Training (AT) on patient emotional states.
    • To understand the early psychological dynamics associated with learning AT.
    • To ascertain if observed improvements are attributable to AT or other factors.

    Summary:

    • Patients undergoing Autogenic Training (AT) exhibited emotional improvements prior to formal course commencement.
    • This early improvement suggests the presence of the drug-doctor-phenomenon, where expectation influences outcome.
    • Control subjects on a waiting list did not show comparable improvements during the same initial study phase.

    Impact:

    • Suggests Autogenic Training (AT) has rapid, potentially placebo-independent, effects on emotional well-being.
    • Highlights the significance of the patient-practitioner interaction and expectation in therapeutic outcomes.
    • Provides evidence for the efficacy of AT as an early intervention for emotional regulation.
