Frank's "common elements" in psychotherapy: nonspecific factors and placebos.
Implications of Jerome Frank's seminal hypotheses are further considered, specifically that all psychological treatments share common elements that account for the effective treatment of a core problem shared by all patients--demoralization. The stages of psychotherapy and the potential role of suggestion, nonspecific elements, and placebo are highlighted.
