Towards a new model of attentional biases in the development, maintenance, and management of pain
Individuals with chronic pain demonstrate attentional biases (ABs) towards pain-related
stimuli. However, the clinical importance of these biases is yet to be determined and a sound …

Attentional bias modification and pain: the role of sensory and affective stimuli
There is growing evidence to support attentional bias modification (ABM) techniques such
as the modified dot-probe task within the pain literature. Such techniques can help to inform …

Selective attentional bias for pain-related stimuli amongst pain fearful individuals
E Keogh, D Ellery, C Hunt, I Hannent - Pain, 2001 - Elsevier
Recent research indicates that people who are fearful of pain tend to report more negative
pain experiences. It also seems that attentional mechanisms may be particularly important in …
