Table 1 Centrality metrics of pain compared to fear- and nervousness-related terms. Columns: metric type (degree, betweenness, eigenvector), pain score, maximum scores in fear and nervousness networks, combined mean ± standard deviation for emotion-related terms, and permutation test p-values (n = 10,000). All centrality values range from 0 to 1; higher values indicate greater structural prominence.
Centrality Metric | Pain score | Max score (fear group) | Max score (nervousness Group) | Mean ± SD (combined emotion terms) | Permutation Test p-value (n = 10,000) |
