Hechler T et al. - The present study provides preliminary evidence for sex differences in the recalled pain experience of adolescents with malignant diagnoses. Although boys and girls experience present pain similarly and hence should be treated similarly, girls recall higher pain intensity than boys. Future studies should address whether negative memories in girls play a significant role and may have an impact on girls' well-being and pain-related distress. Additionally, psychosocial factors such as gender role expectations may need to be investigated. Parental variables and their impact on parents' pain ratings, especially for ratings of precedent pain, warrants further investigation.
