  • Behavioral Versus Pharmacological Treatments for Essential Hypertension—A Needed Comparison

    Lester Luborsky, Paul Crits-Christoph et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine1982

    Comparison of mild-to-moderate essential hypertension patients treated for 6 weeks by antihypertensive medication versus metronome-conditioned relaxation versus biofeedback versus a mild exercise control procedure showed that those on medication achieved the greatest decrease in blood pressure. The relaxation and biofeedback groups decreased more than the mild exercise group, as predicted, but not significantly more. The differences in benefits o…

  • Estimating Oneʼs Own Systolic Blood Pressure: Effects of Feedback Training

    Lester Luborsky, John Paul Brady et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine1976

    This study was aimed at discovering the ability of subjects to estimate absolute levels of systolic blood pressure after feedback of daily blood pressure information. Twenty-one subjects were studied who had shown a variation of at least +/- 20 mm Hg in systolic pressure during 8 days of base-line measurements. Subjects' estimates were found to be moderately accurate even before any specific blood pressure information feedback was given (mean err…

  • Hypnotically Induced Visual Hallucinations

    John Paul Brady, Eugene E LevittARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine1966

    Hypnotized subjects who reported vivid hallucinations of a visual situation which would ordinarily elicit optokinetic nystagmus (e.g., gazing at a rotating drum having vertical black and white stripes) demonstrated nystagmus under these conditions. They and other subjects were unable to feign nystagmus in the waking state, either by imagining the situation or by direct efforts to simulate the eye movements. Thus, an objective criterion is provide…

  • The Effect of Hydrocortisone Infusion on Hypnotically Induced Anxiety

    Eugene E Levitt, Harold Persky et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine1963

    In a double-blind study, experimental subjects were infused with heavy loads of plasma hydrocortisone while control subjects received an appropriate placebo. Anxiety was then induced in all subjects by means of hypnotic suggestions. No mean differences between groups were found on three psychological measures of anxiety. The data suggest that anxiety tended to persist after its hypnotic relief in the subjects receiving the hormone infusion and wa…

  • Deleterious Effects of Anxiety Elicited by Conditioned Pre-aversive Stimuli in the Rat

    John Paul Brady, DOUGLAS R THORNTON et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine1962

    In the experiments reported the deleterious effects of the conditioned emotional response (anxiety) elicited by a pre-aversive stimulus (a buzzer) were separated from the deleterious effects of the aversive stimulus itself (an electric shock). This was accomplished by using three groups of animals. In the first group, shocks were often preceded by a buzzer (pre-aversive stimulus). The second group received the same quantity of shock but without p…
