Abstract
[Psychophysiological Approach of Pain]
Recent progress in the psychobiology of pain is briefly reviewed, with major developments on neurophysiological and neurochemical mechanisms — peripheral as well as central and their implications for a renewed “gate-control” theory; moreover, such a theoretical model offers a frame of reference for various clinical approaches attempting to control pain.
