Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The result of the comparison between eye movement desensitization reprocessing (EMDR) and a placebo treatment ("sham EMDR") was that there was no difference between the authentic EMDR therapy and the sham EMDR treatment. This suggests that EMDR may not be any more effective than a placebo treatment.
