The philosophy of mathematical modelling is outlined and a recommendation is made for the use of modern nonlinear techniques and computational neuroscience in the modelling of pain. Classic and more recent examples of modelling in neurobiology in general and pain in particular, at three different levels-molecular, cellular and neural networks-are described and evaluated. Directions for further progress are indicated, particularly in plasticity and in modelling brain mechanisms. Major advantages of mathematical modelling are that it can handle extremely complex theories and it is non-invasive, and so is particularly valuable in the investigation of chronic pain. 1996 Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context <a href="http://doi.org/10.1007/bf02532424" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">10.1007/bf02532424</a> Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource Article information provided for research and reference use only.

Sick and well respondents were sampled from the general population; and to test its main psychometric properties. The WHOQOL-BREF is a 26-item version of the WHOQOL-100 assessment. Its psychometric properties were analysed using cross-sectional data obtained from a survey of adults carried out in 23 countries (n = 11; as reflected by its four domains: physical; as well as from hospital; clinical settings and clinical trials. Using data from the WHOQOL-BREF field trials; cross-culturally valid assessment of QOL; discriminant validity and construct validity through confirmatory factor analysis; indicate that the WHOQOL-BREF has good to excellent psychometric properties of reliability and performs well in preliminary tests of validity.
