The Temporal Modulation of Nocebo Hyperalgesia in a Model of Sustained Pain (2022)
Journal Article
Camerone, E. M., Battista, S., Benedetti, F., Carlino, E., Sansone, L. G., Buzzatti, L., …Testa, M. (in press). The Temporal Modulation of Nocebo Hyperalgesia in a Model of Sustained Pain. Frontiers in Psychiatry, 13, https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyt.2022.807138

Background: The direction and the magnitude of verbal suggestions have been shown to be strong modulators of nocebo hyperalgesia, while little attention has been given to the role of their temporal content. Here, we investigate whether temporal sugge... Read More about The Temporal Modulation of Nocebo Hyperalgesia in a Model of Sustained Pain.
