The Interplay of Parent and Child Coping Responses in Understanding Child Functioning in the Context of Living with a Parent with or Without Chronic Pain.
Abstract
Pain problems tend to run in families and children of individuals with chronic pain (ICPs) have been found to report lower functioning. Drawing upon a social learning perspective, the current study examined how diverse maternal pain coping responses (i.e., pain catastrophizing and distraction) may, via corresponding child pain coping responses, act as a vulnerability or protective factor for child functioning in the context of parental chronic pain (CP).
