“…Pain in JIA is exacerbated by changes in variables such as stress, coping and mood. Individual differences in anxiety levels have been found to predict greater daily pain and reduced participation in social and school activities in children with JIA (11). Children with JIA coping with higher levels of pain tend to use less positive self-statements and more catastrophizing (ie, engaging in overly negative thinking about pain) (9,(18)(19)(20).…”

“…A procedure similar to other studies (Schanberg, Anthony, Gil, & Maurin, 2003) was followed to enhance and track adherence to the daily diary protocol. Workers were visited at home by the research assistant one or two days prior to the first day of recording for an orientation to the daily work diary and a structured interview about their work and their personality.…”

Chronic strain, daily work stress and pain among workers with rheumatoid arthritis: Does job stress make a bad day worse?

et al. 2004

The structure of the job and the daily experience of work are challenges for workers with rheumatoid arthritis. Yet little is known about how these two factors interact to put workers with chronic pain at risk for worse pain on a given day. This exploratory 20 workday diary study of 27 workers with rheumatoid arthritis used hierarchical linear modeling to examine how the structure of the job and neuroticism moderate the relationship between daily undesirable work events (daily stressors), and pain reports within a day. On days with more undesirable work events compared to days with fewer events, individuals with jobs associated with job "strain" (high demand/low control) reported greater midday pain, irrespective of neuroticism and negative mood, than workers with other combinations of demand and control. These findings demonstrate the utility of analyzing fluctuating within-person relationships among pain, mood, and daily work stressors within the context of the structure of the job, and helps to explain why daily work stressors result in worse health outcomes for some but not all workers with RA.

“…For example, Schanberg et al found that children with JIA reported having pain an average of 73% of days over a 2-month period, and that 31% reported pain in the severe range (1); Benestad et al found that 82% of children with JIA reported pain lasting from 30 minutes to 24 hours daily (2). Pain has been shown to be a significant predictor of impaired psychosocial function in patients with JIA, e.g., reduced participation in school and social activities (1)(2)(3), and even minimal reduction in pain has been associated with improvements in quality of life in these patients (4). Results from experimental studies have shown that patients with JIA have reduced pain tolerance and pain threshold compared with healthy controls, and that their pain tolerance is inversely associated with their clinical pain report (5)(6)(7).…”

“…Diaries are thought to improve recall of minor pain episodes and reduce possible recall bias, and have thus been proposed to be a more valid method than single or retrospective assessments (1). In addition, we wanted to examine whether pain-specific beliefs and coping strategies of patients with JIA independently predict their reported pain, while controlling for disease activity and relevant demographic variables following the method used by Turner et al (11).…”

Objective. To examine whether pain-specific beliefs and coping strategies of patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) independently predict their reported pain, while controlling for relevant demographic variables, disease activity, and parent-rated disability. To compare use of pain-coping strategies and pain-related beliefs of a selected subgroup of patients with high pain and low disease activity (high pain group) with the remaining patients. Methods. Children with JIA (n ‫؍‬ 56) completed the Pain Coping Questionnaire, a revised version of the Survey of Pain Attitudes, and a 3-week pain diary. The parents completed the Childhood Health Assessment Questionnaire (CHAQ). Second order principal component analyses were conducted in order to reduce the number of independent variables. Regression analyses of the dependent measure were performed. The use of coping strategies and health beliefs were compared using t-tests for independent samples. Pearson's correlation coefficients were calculated to examine the direct associations between each individual coping and belief scale, and the pain measure. Results. Only the CHAQ and the cognitive belief composite factor score made statistically significant contribution to the prediction of pain after controlling for other variables. Significant differences were found between the scores of high pain patients and the rest of the group for the health belief subscale of disability (mean ؎ SD 2.0 ؎ 0.6 and 1.2 ؎ 0.7, respectively), and for the health belief subscale of harm (mean ؎ SD 2.7 ؎ 0.6 and 1.8 ؎ 0.7, respectively). Significant correlations were obtained between the pain measure and the pain-coping subscale of catastrophizing, the pain belief subscales of disability, harm, solicitude (inverse), control, and medical cure. Conclusion. These results support a model of pain experience in patients with JIA where psychological factors are strongly influential. It may be efficient to focus behavioral interventions on a subgroup of children where the pain experience seems to be in discordance with the disease activity.
