Abstract
Past literature reveals potential relationships between space and pain perception. However, there is limited research focused on pain perception of the people and different neighbourhoods contexts based on Low Socioeconomic status (SES) and High SES. Our study is mainly about spatial biases and their influence on pain perception. The study’s goal is to find differences in geographic pain perception and study the relationship between pain perception, space, and race. This study mainly focuses on differences in pain perception induced by stimuli from specific geographic locations (High SES vs Low SES) and specific pain scenarios. In addition, Google Street View images will be employed in presenting different geographic locations with high SES and low SES neighbourhoods makeup. The brief study will include: 1) an initial set of questions about participants, such as gender, age, education, birthplace, ethnicity and native language; 2) a set of questions related to pain perception; 3) Voice recording scenarios with follow up questions after each simulation by using the Trawalter pain scale; 4) Follow up questions about neighbourhoods including what are three words you would use to describe the neighbourhoods you just saw and what kind of people do you think live in these neighbourhoods.
