Abstract
The term “therapeutic misconception” was coined
in 1982 by Paul Appelbaum, Loren Roth, and Charles Lidz. Appelbaum
and his colleagues interviewed participants in several psychiatric
studies, including a drug trial with a placebo control arm.
Appelbaum's group found that many people were unaware of
the differences between participating in a study and receiving
treatment in the clinical setting. Rather than understanding
these differences, study participants tended to believe that
therapy and research were governed by the same primary goal:
to advance the individual patient's best interests.
Appelbaum's group labeled this mistaken belief the therapeutic
misconception.
