A kutatási téma leírása:
Neural mechanism controls pain perception on the way that it ensures the immediate and reliable detection of pain stimuli, but also leaves the possibilities opened for the modulatory effects of many psychological mechanisms. Generally, the PhD project is proposed to examine the cognitive modulation of pain perception by using psychophysical and electrophysiological methodologies. The main aim of the project is to investigate pain perception as a function of time. More specifically, we are interested in the changes in the adaptation to repeated pain stimulation (e.g. pain habituation, and pain sensitization). We are looking for answers for questions like how pain adaptation is effected by earlier pain related experiences or by the individuals’ cognitive (e.g. attentional) characteristics.
