Algophobia problems and experience the results before anything actually happens to them. People suffering from this probably have hyperalgesia. The Fear of Pain Questionnaire (currently the FPQ-III) has been used to test for Algophobia in the past and was found to have good internal consistency and test-retest reliability. Algophobia Algophobia is a phobia of pain - an abnormal and persistent fear of pain that is far more powerful than that of a normal person. Algophobia is much more common in elderly people. It can be treated with behavioral therapy and anti-anxiety medication. The term comes from the , "álgos", "pain" and
Persistent current Persistent current Persistent current is a perpetual electric current, not requiring an external power source. In electromagnetism, all magnetizations can be seen as microscopic persistent currents. By definition a magnetization formula_1 can be replaced by its corresponding microscopic form, which is an electric current density: This current is a bound current, not having any charge accumulation associated with it since it is divergenceless. What this means is that any permanently magnetized object, for example a piece of lodestone, can be considered to have persistent electric currents running throughout it (the persistent currents are generally concentrated near the surface). The converse
