Do signs of defensive control locate conflicted topics in discourse?
The findings support the psychodynamic hypothesis that observation of defensive behaviors may locate times of communication about conflicted themes.
The decrease in binding of the exogenous ligand was most likely explained by receptor occupancy due to enhanced secretion of endogenous opioids. Motor cortex stimulation (MCS) may thus induce release of endogenous opioids in brain structures involved in the processing of acute and chronic pain. Correlation of this effect with pain relief in at least two of these structures supports the role of the endogenous opioid system in pain control induced by MCS.
