It is TRUE that the specificity theory of pain: A. focuses on the attention of pain. B. focuses on previous experience of pain. C. relates the amount of pain to the amount of soft tissue injury. D. relates to the emotions exhibited toward pain.

C. relates the amount of pain to the amount of soft tissue injury.

Explanation:

Specificity theory of pain, which is one of the first modern theories of pain, states that there are unique sensory receptors and sensory fibers that are responsible for transmitting of signals of pain to the part of the brain to interpret pain through neural pathways, which are different from other systems of sensory sensation like vision. It holds that these sensory receptors of pain respond to damage, and thereby sends the signals to the brain. According to this theory, the amount of pain the brain perceives can be related to the amount of soft tissue injury, as pain is produced by impulses transmitted to the pain center in the brain as a result of an injury.
