Summary
In previous studies, results of both the Focused Analgesia Selection Test (FAST) procedure, a
method to assess pain-reporting accuracy, and the Evoked Pain Training (EPT) procedure, aimed
to improve pain-reporting accuracy, correlated with the placebo response. The objectives of
the current project were to determine if EPT (1) increases pain reporting accuracy and (2)
affect the placebo response in experimental pain study.
