Prediction of pain in patients with chronic low back pain: Effects of inaccurate prediction and pain-related anxiety
Abstract
This study investigated predictions of pain intensity, reports of pain and anxiety, frequency of pain-related anxiety symptoms, and range of motion, in 43 patients exposed to pain during a physical examination. All patients had primary complaints of low back pain. The pain stimuli used for this study included back and/or leg pain produced by repeatedly raising the extended leg of the patient to the point of pain tolerance. Generally, findings demonstrated that (a) predictions of pain were a function of discrepancies between previous predictions and experiences of pain, (b) patients reporting greater pain-related anxiety showed a tendency to overpredict new pain events, but corrected their predictions readily, (c) patients reporting less pain-related anxiety displayed a persistent tendency to underpredict pain, and (d) higher predictions of pain, independent of pain reports, related to less range of motion during a procedure that involved painful movement. Discussion focuses on differences between these results and those of previous studies and the implications of inaccurate prediction for continued pain and disability.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
