Zusammenfassung: | Although pain is defined as a sensory and emotional experience, it is traditionally researched and clinically treated separately from emotion. Conceptual and mechanistic relationships between these constructs highlight the need for better understanding of their bi-directional influences and the value of bridging the pain and emotion research and clinical communities.
Despite their inherent connection, pain and emotion remain largely separate at the theoretical, empirical, clinical, and institutional levels. Gilam et al. emphasize that bridging across these levels will advance our understanding of pain and emotion’s normative and pathological manifestations. |
