Although pain is widely recognized by clinicians and researchers as
an experience, pain is always felt in a patient-specific way rather
than experienced for what it objectively is, making perceived
meaning important in the study of pain. The book contributors
explain why meaning is important in the way that pain is felt and
promote the integration of quantitative and qualitative methods to
study meanings of pain. For the first time in a book, the study of
the meanings of pain is given the attention it deserves. All pain
research and medicine inevitably have to negotiate how pain is
perceived, how meanings of pain can be described within the fabric
of a person's life and neurophysiology, what factors mediate them,
how they interact and change over time, and how the relationship
between patient, researcher, and clinician might be understood in
terms of meaning. Though meanings of pain are not intensively
studied in contemporary pain research or thoroughly described as
part of clinical assessment, no pain researcher or clinician can
avoid asking questions about how pain is perceived or the types of
data and scientific methods relevant in discovering the answers.
