Relationship of intersession variation in negative pain-related affect and responses to thermally-evoked pain.
UNLABELLED The purpose of this study was to determine whether session-specific measures of negative pain-related affect would account for longitudinal variability in the ratings of the evoked thermal pain. Pain-free subjects rated pain evoked on the posterior leg using thermal stimuli of 45 degrees , 47 degrees , 49 degrees , and 51 degrees C on 3 occasions, each separated by 2 weeks. Session-s...
متن کاملDoes self-perception of sensitivity to pain correlate with actual sensitivity to experimental pain?
Background People often state that they are "sensitive" or "insensitive" to pain. However, the accuracy and clinical relevance of such statements is unclear. Objective The aim of this study was to search for associations between self-perception of sensitivity to pain and experimental pain measures, including known psychophysical inhibitory or excitatory pain paradigms. Subjects and methods ...
متن کاملPain, Affect, and Attachment
Various psychodynamic processes may underlie the development of psychogenic pain disorder such as conversion, the displacement of affect, or narcissistic defenses. However, many of the processes suggested are related to a disorder of affect regulation. The term affect regulation in psychoanalytic literature refers to phenomena which are often described by the concept of alexithymia. Empirical o...
متن کاملHow Do Pain Genes Affect Pain Experience?
Pain genetics is a relatively young field in pain research, and it faced much skepticism from both pain scientists studying basic mechanisms of pain who were unfamiliar with genetic approaches and human geneticists who considered pain to be too subjective, too immeasurable, and too unstable to be regarded as a genetic trait. Just ten years ago, we, the authors, had to defend our ground and grad...
متن کاملSex differences in experimental measures of pain sensitivity and endogenous pain inhibition
It has been suggested that increased pain sensitivity and disruption of endogenous pain inhibitory processes may account, at least in part, for the greater prevalence and severity of chronic pain in women compared to men. However, previous studies addressing this topic have produced mixed findings. This study examined sex differences in pain sensitivity and inhibition using quantitative sensory...
