The Analgesic Effect of Auditory Inputs and Its Relation to Psychological and Neurobiological Mechanisms

The study investigates the analgesic effect of different auditory inputs. Employing a within-subject design, the study includes healthy participants that are exposed to thermal stimuli while listening to three different auditory inputs. By repeating this on separate test days, the involvement of bodily processes is investigated.
