Expressive dimensions of pain catastrophizing: An observational study in adolescents with chronic pain
Pain, 08/18/09
Vervoort T et al. – Analyses revealed that higher levels of catastrophic thinking about pain were associated with higher levels of facial pain expressions and verbalizations about their pain experience, beyond the effects of age, gender, pain duration and pain intensity. Pain–related protective behaviours did not vary with the adolescents’ level of pain catastrophizing, but varied with pain intensity. The findings corroborate the functional distinctiveness of different types of pain behaviours. The results are discussed in terms of the processes linking (1) catastrophizing to communicative pain behaviours and (2) pain to pain–related protective behaviours.
