Do beliefs, coping, and catastrophizing independently predict functioning in patients with chronic pain?
Abstract
Physical and psychosocial disability in patients with chronic pain have been shown to be associated with patients' pain-related beliefs, tendency to catastrophize, and pain coping strategy use. However, little is known about whether beliefs, catastrophizing, and coping strategies are independently associated with patient adjustment. Identification of specific beliefs, cognitive responses, and coping strategies strongly and independently associated with physical and psychosocial functioning would suggest the importance of targeting those variables for modification in treatment. One hundred sixty-nine patients entering a multidisciplinary pain treatment program completed measures of pain, beliefs, coping, catastrophizing, physical disability, and depression. Principal components analyses were used to create belief and coping components, which were then entered in multiple regression analyses predicting physical disability and depression. Belief scores significantly and independently predicted both physical disability and depression, after controlling for age, sex, pain intensity, catastrophizing, and coping. Coping scores significantly and independently predicted physical disability, but not depression, whereas catastrophizing independently predicted depression, but not physical disability. These findings suggest the importance of targeting specific pain-related beliefs and coping strategies, as well as catastrophizing, for modification in the treatment of patients with chronic…

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.
