Abstract
Abstract. A growing body of literature suggests that chronic-pain patients suffer from problems in various neuropsychological domains, including executive functioning. In order to better understand which components of executive functioning (inhibition, shifting and/or updating) might be especially affected by pain and which mechanisms might underlie this association, we conducted a systematic review, including both chronic-pain studies as well as experimental-pain studies. The chronic-pain studies (N = 57) show that pain is associated with poorer executive functioning. The findings of experimental-pain studies (N = 28) suggest that this might be a bidirectional relationship: Pain can disrupt executive functioning, but poorer executive functioning might also be a risk factor for higher vulnerability to pain.
期刊介绍：
In der Zeitschrift für Neuropsychologie werden aktuelle Forschungsergebnisse sowie Reviewartikel aus dem Bereich der experimentellen und klinischen Neuropsychologie sowie angrenzender Gebiete (z.B. Biologische Psychologie, Neurologie, Neuropsychiatrie, Neuropsychopharmakologie, Rehabilitationspsychologie) publiziert.
Die Beiträge sollen gleichgewichtet sowohl die human- und tierexperimentelle Grundlagenforschung, als auch die klinische Forschung und die klinische Praxis berücksichtigen. Der klinische Schwerpunkt liegt auf der Diagnostik und Rehabilitation von kognitiven und affektiven Störungen, wie z.B. von Aufmerksamkeit, Gedächtnis, Planen und Problemlösen, Sensomotorik, Wahrnehmung, Emotionalität und Sozialverhalten.
