Abstract
Taking the needleandbeing needledare contemporary colloquialisms which have some significance to those who administer injections for psychological purposes. They suggest that the experience of receiving hypodermic injections must be a relatively common one in our society, and also that such an experience is generally considered to be unpleasant. The corollary of these conclusions is that such a public attitude of mind is likely to foster preconceptions in relations to injections so that, whether or not the pain threshold itself is actually exceeded, the individual receiving an injection will be predisposed to regard the experience as a stressful one.
