Abstract:
Background Improvements in software and design and reduction in cost have made virtual reality (VR) a practical tool for immersive, three-dimensional (3D), multisensory experiences that distract patients from painful stimuli. Objective The objective of the study was to measure the impact of a onetime 3D VR intervention versus a two-dimensional (2D) distraction video for pain in hospitalized patients. Methods We conducted a comparative cohort study in a large, urban teaching hospital in medical inpatients with an average pain score of ≥3/10 from any cause. Patients with nausea, vomiting, dement

Background Social isolation is associated with an increased risk for mental and physical health problems, especially among older persons living with HIV (PLWH).

Abstract:
Introduction A recent study by Potter et al. (in submission) reported that many chronic pain sufferers experience a spontaneous mental image of their pain, and that these individuals also report higher levels of anxiety and depression. However, little is known about the nature of pain-related mental imagery or the role it might have in chronic pain problems. Research Aims This project aimed to replicate these findings with a larger sample, and to discover more about the characteristics of pain-related mental imagery.

Abstract:
Background. Recently, 'mental defeat' (MD) has been explored amongst the chronic pain population and considered as a sort of 'self-processing'. Initial research has linked it to anxiety, pain interference and functional disability. Research has recommended that we explore the relationship between MD and other cognitive constructs, such as hopelessness and depression. The present study firstly considers MD as a predictor for pain symptomology and self-efficacy when related cognitive constructs are examined. Secondly, although chronic pain and MD commonly co-occur, causal relationships have yet

Abstract:
This thesis deals with a potential interaction between the vestibular system and the phenomenon of central pain.  I provide behavioural and magnetoencephalographic (MEG) evidence that cold caloric vestibular stimulation (CVS) can alleviate central pain in some sufferers. I argue that activation of the parieto-insular vestibular cortex (PIVC) in central pain patients can act via the parabrachial nucleus in the brainstem to rebalance the integration of thermosensory input and suppress the perception of pain at the anterior cingulated cortex (ACC).  This is consistent with the thermosensory disin

Factors involving in teaching and learning about ethics have being long paid attention to. The present study was designed to investigate whether a) the presentation of positive and negative types of information, b) inducing imagery in children, and c) the socio-economic status of children had any effect upon the children's learning about and recalling ethics. There were four aspects of ethics: honesty, diligence, responsibility, and discipline.
