“…57 A pandemic-initiated violation of just-world beliefs could exacerbate perceived injustices associated with pain. 16 For example, physical distancing policies could further increase social isolation and potentially worsen perceived injustices, 80 while disrupting social networks that are sources of justice and support 74 may heighten perceptions of invalidation among those with pain, driven by the sense that one does not matter to others. 17 Variation in the effect of COVID-19 illustrates social inequalities around pain, and health care more generally.…”

“…11 Perceived injustice has been extensively analyzed among people with chronic pain, including those with whiplash, fibromyalgia, and osteoarthritis. 12 In a recent study, we explored the association between perceived injustice and severity of menstrual pain. 13 Many women with premenstrual symptoms also suffer from related pain symptoms such as breast tenderness and abdominal pain.…”

Premenstrual symptoms comprise a wide range of mood, behavioral, and physical symptoms occurring during the luteal phase. Perceived injustice is a belief linked to unfairness (ie, unnecessary suffering caused by illness). This study aimed to assess the validity and reliability of the Premenstrual Symptoms Questionnaire (PSQ), a patient-reported outcome measurement tool, and to examine the association between perceived injustice/perception of menstruation and premenstrual symptoms, as measured by the PSQ. Materials and Methods: Of 1388 female students, we analyzed 879 students with regular menstrual cycles who completed the PSQ, the premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) scale, the Somatic Symptom Scale-8 (SSS-8), and the Injustice Experience Questionnaire-chronic (IEQ-chr). First, the PSQ was examined for evidence of reliability and validity. Next, we used multiple regression and multivariate logistic regression to investigate the association between perceived injustice and premenstrual symptoms, using PSQ score as both a continuous variable and a dichotomous variable (premenstrual disorders or not). Moreover, the association between PSQ score and perceived menstruation was tested using student's t-test and analysis of variance. Results: In terms of reliability, Cronbach's α for PSQ score was 0.93. To assess structural validity, we used confirmatory factor analysis, which showed that the onefactor model and the two-factor model were a good fit. The PSQ showed good agreement with the PMDD scale. In terms of concurrent validity, PSQ total score correlated strongly with PMDD scale score, SSS-8 score, and IEQ-chr score (r = 0.88, 0.69, 0.57, respectively). IEQ-chr score predicted PSQ score (standardized regression coefficient = 0.53; P < 0.0001) and higher prevalence of premenstrual disorders (odds ratio: 1.15; 95% confidence interval: 1.12-1.19). Negative perception of menstruation was associated with premenstrual symptoms. Conclusion: The PSQ showed sound psychometric properties among the adolescents in our sample. Perceived injustice and negative perception of menstruation were associated with premenstrual symptoms.

“…In particular, disability, pain and mental health after compensable injury are associated with subjective experience of claim-related stress, particularly due to claim delays [ 29 , 30 ], undergoing independent medical examinations to determine the severity of functional impairment [ 31 ], as well as attributions of fault or consulting a lawyer [ 26 ]. Moreover, perceptions of injustice [ 32 ], having a sense of entitlement or embodiment of a “victim” role [ 33 ] may play a role. Many of these associations are likely to be bidirectional given that processes like independent medical examinations are often requested because a person reports persistent pain and/or psychological injury in order to determine the veracity of that self-report.…”

Identifying who might develop disabling pain or poor mental health after injury is a high priority so that healthcare providers can provide targeted preventive interventions. This retrospective cohort study aimed to identify predictors of disabling pain or probable mental health conditions at 12 months post-injury. Participants were recruited 12-months after admission to a major trauma service for a compensable transport or workplace injury (n = 157). Injury, compensation claim, health services and medication information were obtained from the Victorian Orthopaedic Trauma Outcome Registry, Victorian State Trauma Registry and Compensation Research Database. Participants completed questionnaires about pain, and mental health (anxiety, depression, posttraumatic stress disorder) at 12 months post-injury. One third had disabling pain, one third had at least one probable mental health condition and more than one in five had both disabling pain and a mental health condition at 12 months post-injury. Multivariable logistic regression found mental health treatment 3–6 months post-injury, persistent work disability and opioid use at 6–12 months predicted disabling pain at 12 months post-injury. The presence of opioid use at 3–6 months, work disability and psychotropic medications at 6–12 months predicted a mental health condition at 12 months post-injury. These factors could be used to identify at risk of developing disabling pain who could benefit from timely interventions to better manage both pain and mental health post-injury. Implications for healthcare and compensation system are discussed.
