Abstract

The associations between family strain, depression, and chronic pain interference vary across individuals, suggesting moderated relations, and one possible moderator is somatic amplification. The current study examined a moderated mediation model that investigated (a) whether depression mediated the relation between non-spouse family strain and chronic pain interference and (b) whether somatic amplification moderated the association between depression and chronic pain interference.
