Mindsets are core assumptions about the nature and workings of things in the world that orient us to a particular set of attributions, expectations, and goals. Our study of mindsets is, in part, inspired by research on the placebo effect, a robust demonstration of the ability of mindsets, conscious or subconscious, to elicit physiological changes in the body. This talk will explore the role of mindsets in three stages of chronic disease progression: genetic predisposition, behavioral prevention, and clinical treatment. I will discuss the mechanisms through which mindsets influence health as well as the myriad ways that mindsets can be more effectively leveraged to motivate healthy behaviors and improve 21st century healthcare.
