Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Attention bias towards pain-related information exists in patients with chronic pain, and recently, attention bias modification (ABM) training has been administered to patients with chronic pain. In this study, we conducted attention bias measurement (dot-probe) task in conjunction with event-related potential measurements for elderly individuals with chronic low back pain (LBP) and investigated the relationship between attention bias and psychological assessment. Ten elderly women with chronic LBP participated in the study. The STarT Back psychological score was significantly correlated with the N1 amplitude of Cz and Pz and with RT. The Fear Avoidance-Beliefs Questionnaire score was significantly correlated with the N1 amplitude of Cz. For chronic LBP patients who are classified according to STarT Back, pain-related outcome improvement with ABM training can be expected.
