Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Expectation induced by verbal suggestions is known to be a central mechanism in the generation of the placebo response in different physiological and pathological conditions. Here, we analyze the impact of different verbal suggestions in an experimental setting, measuring work performed, and rate of perceived exertion in healthy subjects undergoing strenuous exercise. A double protocol is used, with different probabilities of receiving what is believed to be an ergogenic substance (in fact, a placebo), with or without an associated conditioning procedure. We show that while high verbal suggestions of motor improvement can work alone, low verbal suggestions produce a response only after conditioning, and that in the absence of verbal suggestions (open-label placebo) no response can ever be elicited. These results can be useful for the design of both clinical trial and sports training protocols.
