The scene:
You are in graduate school, working at a pain clinic for your required internship. You have created a new pain intervention that uses an illusion to decrease pain!
Your job:
To demonstrate the effectiveness of this new treatment, you have been asked to design an experiment that tests your hypothesis. Create a presentation for your internship supervisor that outlines the critical components of your idea. Successful completion of this activity involves the creation of a multimedia presentation (audio or video) to demonstrate your ability to test the effectiveness of your innovative pain intervention.
Please adhere to the guidelines below and answer the following questions in preparation of your presentation:
Use any of the available multimedia presentation software.
Integrate visual artifacts to enhance your presentation.
What is your hypothesis?
Identify the specific pain and whether it’s acute or chronic.
Identify the specific illusion you intend to use to alter the pain.
Explain how the illusion would work.
Discuss certain factors that might impede the success of your experiment.
How likely do you believe your experiment will succeed?
Do you believe using illusions to help with pain management is a better alternative to using opioids? Why/Why not?
