In this first-of-its-kind study, we take a look at the relationship between different reward processes and health outcomes with chronic whiplash injuries.
The results show that fun, drive, reward and behavioural inhibition did not demonstrate any relationship with health outcomes in people with chronic whiplash injuries, although as the duration of pain increased, fun seeking reduced.
These findings are consistent with other research demonstrating that personality type is not associated with health outcomes in people with chronic whiplash injuries.
