I suppose the same situation can be described using different words, so it is difficult to argue what is the correct framing. (I still think this is falsifiable in principle, e.g. by measuring the serotonin levels, but no one probably did that.) To me, this sounds like “people treat me better than I deserve”, which means “I don’t deserve to be treated well”, which is kinda the thing I am pointing towards.
And yeah, the predictions are there to make something sufficiently non-ambiguous. Actually, only the prediction with weightlifting is like that, because what “makes the patient feel stronger or more popular” is also debatable.
