Abstract

This study investigated the tolerance for physical pain in suicidal subjects. Suicidal, psychiatric nonsuicidal, and normal young males and females were administered pain measures including electric shocks, appraisal of shocks, and a measure of thermal pain. Additional study variables included diagnosis, past suicide attempts, severity of suicidal intent, and length of hospitalization. Suicidal individuals showed higher tolerance for pain and appraised the pain as less intense than the other groups, regardless of diagnosis, length of hospitalization, and motivation to participate in the study. These findings were explained as a result of dissociative processes inherent in the development of suicidal tendencies and in terms of pain management strategies.

  • People with recent suicidal behavior show higher physical pain tolerance than non-suicidal psychiatric patients and community individuals, as measured by electric shock and thermal pain.

    “individuals with recent suicidal behavior demonstrate elevated physical pain tolerance (as measured by electric shock and thermal pain) compared to non-suicidal psychiatric patients and individuals in the community (Orbach, Mikulincer, King, Cohen, & Stein, 1997; Orbach, Palgi, Stein, HarEven, LotemPeleg, Asherov, et al., 1996)”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
