Behavioral Responses To Pain

Improved Essays
Another one my closest friends did not speak for almost 4 months, we did not argue or anything, Folger et al. (2013) argues that “behavioral responses to hurt may be similar to those for anger, but also include acquiescence to the other’s behavior and expressions of invulnerability” (p. 50); I agree with this because after noticing that she stopped answering my calls or text me back, I got tired of it, my hurt turned into anger and then just let it go. On my birthday she called, & I ignored it; however, I listened to the voicemail, because I knew her so well, I could tell something was not right. I could no longer be upset with her on my birthday and I was afraid that something might wrong. My approach to deal with the conflict was to call

    For such a complex conflicts, litigation or court procedures are the best method to solve the dispute. However, in the beginning it might be possible to resolve the conflict through Mediation. Because in mediation the goal is not to figure out right or wrong but the goal is to find out the best solution on the basis of mutual consent.

On the off chance that the parties can work out an agreement in mediation, the middle person carefully records their understanding.…

    In the essay ‘Take Me out of Their Ball Game’ by Maria Guhde Keri, the author illustrates a prevalent situation in any child's life, “Did you ever walk into a room where kids are playing, say, a board game? They're animated, excited, totally focused on what they're doing. When you appear, they stiffen, grow quiet, and appear confused. An adult is watching, and suddenly the game and rules are changed-maybe even ruined.” In this scenario the presence of an authority figure sours the mood.…

    Pain Catastrophizing

    • 667 Words
    • 3 Pages

    Introduction Pain catastrophizing is defined as a tendency to exaggerate and interpret pain-related experiences in a negative way, and it is associated with the expectation of negative outcomes in ambiguous situations (Parkerson et al., 2013; Sharpe, Johnson, & Dear, 2014). Considering the association between pain catastrophizing and pain-related fear, it is likely that pain catastrophizing can be also considered responsible for persistence of chronic pain (Khatibi, Schrooten, Vancleef, & Vlaeyen, 2014). In addition, pain catastrophizing may have a communal coping function that is chronic pain patients may catastrophize about pain to elicit more support from their significant others, for instance, their spouses (M. J. Sullivan et al., 2001).…
