Appendix 1—table 1. Model-free performance measures in simulated datasets that were generated using the group-level mean parameters from our placebo and drug groups.

Placebo simulations Drug simulations Averagep value
Number of pain stimuli 54.9 55.1 0.63
Switching after pain 45.0% 44.1% 0.44
Switching after no pain 4.8% 3.7% 0.41

Notes: Performance measures are averaged across all synthetic participants from each of 50 simulated datasets (27 synthetic participants per dataset). We performed 50 t-tests—each comparing the scores from the synthetic participants from one placebo vs. one drug simulation—and report their average p values.
