What is the best match?

double blind control

    { 1 } - the improvement frequently experienced by patients who expect it
    { 2 } - an inert medication given to satisfy the patient
    { 3 } - not only are subjects not informed as to which form of treatment they are receiving, but even those researchers who evaluate the effects of the treatment do not know which subjects have received which therapy
    { 4 } - three groups are used in experimentation, one group receiving experimental therapy, one a placebo, and one standard therapy or no therapy at all
