Technology plays a key role in teenage romance from initial encounters to eventual break-ups, says a US
study.
Teenagers rarely meet online but do use technology for flirting, asking out, meeting up and parting, American think
tank, the Pew Research Center, found. A survey of 1,060 US teenagers aged 13 to 17 revealed that technology brings
them closer but also breeds jealousy. "Digital platforms are powerful tools for teens," said Amanda Lenhart, lead author
of the report from Pew. "But even as teens enjoy greater closeness with partners and a chance to display their
relationships for others to see, mobile and social media can also be tools for jealousy, meddling and even troubling
behaviour."
Digital romance, broken down
Of the 1,060 teenagers surveyed: • 35% said they were currently dating and 59% of that group said technology made
them feel closer to their partner • For boys who were dating, 65% said social media made them more connected to a
significant other while it was 52% for girls • 27% of dating teenagers thought social media made them feel jealous or
insecure in relationships • 50% of all teens surveyed, dating or not, said they had indicated interest by friending
someone on Facebook or other social media and 47% expressed attraction by likes and comments • Texting is king -
92% of teens who were dating said they texted a partner, assuming the partner would check in with "great regularity" •
Jealousy happens, but not as much as flirting does - 11% of teenage daters reported accessing a partner's online
accounts and 16% reported having a partner asking them to de-friend someone What gets discussed during all those
frequent social media enabled check-ins? According to the survey, it is mostly "funny stuff" followed by "things you're
thinking about" as well as other information such as where they are and what their friends have been doing. And forget
having to meet up to resolve a conflict - 48% of dating teenagers said that could be done by texting or talking online.
Online tools, with their accessibility and ease of use, also showed some signs of giving this group relationship anxiety.
Females are more likely to be subject to unwanted flirting and 25% of teenagers surveyed said they have blocked or
unfriended someone because of uncomfortable flirting. And 15% of teenage daters said a partner had used the internet
to pressure them into unwanted sexual activity.
'More than emojis'
Nearly half the respondents admitted to concentrating on their phone ahead of their partner when together with 43% of
dating teens saying that had happened to them. "I don't think this survey reveals much that is surprising. But it is
affirming. Humans are social animals and we build tools to connect with each other,"wrote Julie Beck, an associate
editor at The Atlantic news site, of the survey's findings. "It's not all heart emojis all the time, no, but the tools that
facilitate relationships facilitate all aspects of them, good and bad. "Connecting with others is scary, hard, sometimes
dangerous, but usually, hopefully, good. The teens get it."

The placebo effect: amazing and real
November 2, 2015
Robert H. Shmerling
The placebo effect is a mysterious thing. I’ve long been
fascinated by the idea that something as inert and harmless
as a sugar pill could relieve a person’s pain or hasten their
recovery just by the expectation that it would. Studies use
placebos – an inactive treatment, such as a sugar pill – in
an attempt to understand the true impact of the active drug.
Comparing what happens to a group of patients taking the
active drug with the results of those taking a placebo can help
researchers understand just how good the active drug is.
The word “placebo” comes from Latin and means “I shall
please.” And “please” it does. In study after study, many
patients who take a placebo show improvement in their
symptoms or condition.
The placebo effect is for real
Recent research on the placebo effect only confirms how
powerful it can be – and that the benefits of a placebo treatment
aren’t just “all in your head.” Measureable physiological
changes can be observed in those taking a placebo, similar to
those observed among people taking effective medications.
In particular, blood pressure, heart rate, and blood test results
have been shown to improve among subsets of research
subjects who responded to a placebo.
Of course, not everyone has a therapeutic response to a
placebo. If that were the case, we wouldn’t need medications
at all. Instead, we could simply wield the power of suggestion.
Understanding why certain people improve with placebo
treatment and others do not is the “holy grail” of placebo research.
Nocebo: Placebo’s evil twin
The power of suggestion is a double-edged sword. If
you expect a treatment to help you, it’s more likely to do so.
And if you expect a treatment will be harmful, you are more
likely to experience negative effects. That phenomenon is
called the “nocebo effect” (from the Latin “I shall harm”). For
example, if you tell a person that a headache is a common
side effect of a particular medication, that person is more
likely to report headaches even if they are actually taking a
placebo. The power of expectation is formidable and probably
plays a significant role in the benefits and the side effects of
commonly prescribed medications.
