Cortical basis of pain perception and processing:
Who described the 3 dimensions of pain?
Hint: M and C (196_)
Melzack and Casey (1968)
Cortical basis of pain perception and processing:
According to Melzack and Casey (1968), what are the 3 dimensions of pain?
1.
2.
3.
Hint: S-d, M-a, C-e
Cortical basis of pain perception and processing:
According to Melzack and Casey (1968), what are the 3 dimensions of pain?
- Sensory-discriminative.
- Motivational-affective.
- Cognitive-evaluative.
Cortical basis of pain perception and processing:
According to Melzack and Casey (1968), which dimension of pain transmits basic sensory info, such as location, intensity and quality?
Sensory-discriminative.
Cortical basis of pain perception and processing:
According to Melzack and Casey (1968), which dimension of pain includes perceptions of unpleasantness of pain and the urge to escape?
Motivational-affective.
Cortical basis of pain perception and processing:
According to Meizack and Casey (1968), which dimension of pain includes the meaning and appraisal of the sensory experience?
Cognitive-evaluative.
Cortical basis of pain perception and processing:
There is no single cortical area responsible for pain perception. Pain is a complex, multifactorial subjective experience, with a large distributed brain network accessed during nociceptive processing.
This network is called the:
Pain Matrix.
Cortical basis of pain perception and processing:
Sensory discriminative component.
What part of the brain is involved in stimulus localisation of nociceptive info?
S1 (primary somatosensory cortex)
Cortical basis of pain perception and processing:
Sensory discriminative component.
What parts of the brain are involved in intensity coding of a stimulus?
1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
Hint: S, S, M-t-n, A-c-c, I
Cortical basis of pain perception and processing:
Sensory discriminative component.
What parts of the brain are involved in intensity coding of a stimulus?
- S1
- S2
- Medial thalamic nuclei
- Anterior cingulate cortex
- Insular
Cortical basis of pain perception and processing:
Sensory discriminative component.
Where is nociception established as a sensory modality?
In the somatosensory system.
Cortical basis of pain perception and processing:
Motivational-affective component.
Changes in what part of the brain are associated with changes in perceived pain?
The ACC (anterior cingulate cortex).
Cortical basis of pain perception and processing:
Motivational-affective component.
Destruction of what part of the brain is associated with reductions in pain-related emotional distress?
The ACC (anterior cingulate cortex).
Cortical basis of pain perception and processing:
Motivational-affective component.
What part of the brain is associated with the emotional component of pain?
The insular cortex.
Cortical basis of pain perception and processing:
Motivational-affective component.
Destruction of what part of the brain is associated with pain without unpleasantness?
The insular cortex.
Cortical basis of pain perception and processing:
Motivational-affective component.
What parts of the brain are activated when pain-free individuals imagine a painful experience?
The ACC and insular cortex.
Cortical basis of pain perception and processing:
Cognitive-evaluative component.
What part of the brain is associated with cognitive and attentional aspects of pain?
The prefrontal cortex.
