“…It consists of 13 items valued from 0 (never) to 4 (always). The possible range is 0-52 points, with lower scores indicating less catastrophism levels [46]. It is a reliable tool with a Cronbach's α value greater than 0.70 [47].…”

Background: Virtual reality (VR) applied to patients with neck pain is a promising intervention to produce positive effects when used alone or combined with exercise. Therefore, the objective of this manuscript is to compare the effects of VR versus exercise treatment on pain intensity, conditioned pain modulation (CPM), temporal summation (TS) and functional and somatosensory outcomes in patients with non-specific chronic neck pain (NS-CNP). Methods: A single-blinded, randomized clinical trial was carried out. A total sample of 44 patients with NS-CNP was randomized into a VR treatment group or neck exercises group. The intervention consisted of two treatment sessions per week, for four weeks and eight sessions. Four measurement moments (at baseline, immediately, 1 month, and 3 months after intervention) were considered. Pain intensity, CPM, TS, functional and somatosensory outcomes were measured. Results: Statistically significant differences were revealed for time factor (F = 16.40, p < 0.01, ηp2 = 0.28) and group*time interaction for kinesiophobia (F = 3.89, p = 0.01, ηp2 = 0.08) showing post-hoc differences in favor of the VR group at 3 months (p < 0.05, d = 0.65). Significant effects were shown for time factor (p < 0.05) but not for the group*time interaction (p > 0.05) for pain intensity, rotation range of motion (ROM), Neck Disability Index, pain catastrophizing, fear-avoidance beliefs, left side pressure pain threshold (PPT) and anxiety. Statistically significant differences were not found for time factor (p > 0.05) and neither in group*time interaction (p > 0.05) for CPM, TS, right side PPT, flexo-extension and lateral-flexion ROM. Conclusions: Kinesiophobia was the only outcome that showed differences between VR and exercise at 3 months. Nevertheless, pain intensity, CPM, TS, ROM, neck disability, pain catastrophizing, fear-avoidance beliefs, PPT and anxiety did not show differences between both interventions.

“…Imagery is one of the most investigated techniques in psychological evaluation studies (Olmedilla et al, 2011). Imagery may be classified in several ways: it is possible, for example, to differentiate according to theperspective (external vs. internal) or according to the type of sensations (visual, auditory, kinesthetic, etc.).…”

Hum. Sport Exerc., 8(4), pp. 1029-1044. The aim of this review is to provide the state of the art about the psychology of sport injury rehabilitation by analyzing the most recent literature and research on this field. In the first part, we presented theoretical models contextualizing the sport injury, the motivational process underlying the recovery, and the influence of social and contextual factors. The second part focuses on the possible psychological interventions and their effect on the rehabilitation process. In conclusion, some gaps in the current literature have been highlighted and directions for future research have been provided.

“…This is a well-know 40-item questionnaire designed to measure state and trait anxiety. Additionally, participants also filled out the Spanish version of the Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS) (Sullivan et al, 1995 ; Olmedilla et al, 2013 ), in order to assess the frequency of catastrophic thoughts when they are in pain. This scale requires that the respondent rate each of the 13 items on a 5-point scale from 0 (not at all) to 4 (all the time).…”

Decreased Pain Perception by Unconscious Emotional Pictures

et al. 2016

Pain perception arises from a complex interaction between a nociceptive stimulus and different emotional and cognitive factors, which appear to be mediated by both automatic and controlled systems. Previous evidence has shown that whereas conscious processing of unpleasant stimuli enhances pain perception, emotional influences on pain under unaware conditions are much less known. The aim of the present study was to investigate the modulation of pain perception by unconscious emotional pictures through an emotional masking paradigm. Two kinds of both somatosensory (painful and non-painful) and emotional stimulation (negative and neutral pictures) were employed. Fifty pain-free participants were asked to rate the perception of pain they were feeling in response to laser-induced somatosensory stimuli as faster as they can. Data from pain intensity and reaction times were measured. Statistical analyses revealed a significant effect for the interaction between pain and emotional stimulation, but surprisingly this relationship was opposite to expected. In particular, lower pain intensity scores and longer reaction times were found in response to negative images being strengthened this effect for painful stimulation. Present findings suggest a clear pain perception modulation by unconscious emotional contexts. Attentional capture mechanisms triggered by unaware negative stimulation could explain this phenomenon leading to a withdrawal of processing resources from pain.
