Pain Avoidance Behavior and Its Relation to Risk for Opioid Use in Chronic Pain Patients

This cross-sectional study will present the participants with an instrumental pain avoidance learning task, while we record continuous Magnetoencephalography (MEG) brain signals, and other autonomic measurements. All patients will complete behavioral, neuropsychological and pain assessments to rate their current pain, disability, fear, anxiety, and depression using standardized scales.
