Invisibilia just had a episode pertaining to this on July 22, "The Secret Emotional Life of Clothes." One of the sections had a study where the participants were asked to do a concentration test. The group that wore a doctors lab coat scored far better than the group who didn't. What was interesting is that when the coat was described as a painters coat rather than a doctors coat the results effect was not the same.
