Pain Expectation in Social Contexts by ghost48op is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This study investigates the impact of social context on pain anticipation and perception using electrophysiological measures, specifically contingent negative variation (CNV). Participants were divided into two groups: one experienced pain alone while the other was observed by another person. Results showed that the social context led to lower pain ratings, slower reaction times, and reduced CNV amplitudes, indicating that social factors significantly influence pain processing.
