 When the naturalistic underpinnings of these evaluative and motivational theories are explored, functionalist or psychofunctionalist reductions of the affective/evaluative dimension of pain might turn out to be the most natural option for these theorists. (For general critical reviews of the class of recent evaluative and motivational accounts of pain, and in particular the affective aspect of pains, see Corns 2018, and Aydede &amp; Fulkerson 2019, the latter develop a psychofunctionalist and a first-order experiential anti-damage desire account of sensory affect, including pain affect.)
