Advances and Challenges in Pain Measurement

Lord Kelvin (William Thompson) “To measure is to know.” “If you cannot measure it, you cannot improve it.” Pain has proven elusive to definitive measurement in research and clinical settings. While the experience is familiar to virtually everyone, it also is recognized as complex and multidimensional. Critiques of the field advise that pain is often unrecognized, inadequately assessed and underestimated. Unidimensional scales relying upon self-report are commonly used both clinically and in research settings, but they are vulnerable to presentation bias and they fail to capture the complexity of this multidimensional phenomenon. In consequence, there has been considerable interest an...

The Brain Behind Pain

Explores the important role of the brain in both the experience of pain and its resolution. Pain is a product of the brain, which announces it after being warned by a small army of nocioceptors stationed throughout the body, always on alert for any threat to the overall system. But there can be glitches in that process. Chronic pain often occurs when the brain "remembers" pain, even though the condition that caused it may have been dealt with and resolved. Still, pain is misunderstood by many, including both sufferers and the physicians they seek out to treat it. In recent years, though, new light has been shed on just what causes pain, how it is experienced in the body, how it can go haywir...

At the Table of Holy Wisdom

Wisdom is personified in the Bible as a female figure inviting us to a banquet. Those who yearn most for the message are the hungriest: women and children, especially those of color. Barbara Reid explores how feminist liberationist biblical interpretation is an essential tool to alleviate this hunger, extending the banquet metaphor.
