“…It is among the first studies that have examined a set of social (parental social class, education and occupation) and psychological (childhood intelligence and adult personality traits) factors in influencing the prevalence of back pain in adulthood. Results from this study confirm the previous findings (Bru et al, 1993;Cvijetic et al 2014) that trait emotional stability was significantly associated with the occurrence of back pain. The current study extended the previous studies by showing that the association between emotional stability and back pain remained significant after controlling for childhood intelligence and a number of social factors in childhood and adulthood.…”

The results, however, have often been contradictory.…”

For instance, Cvijetic et al found, that patients who suffer with chronic pain are prone to be neurotic, as well as have increased rates of disability and a decreased quality of life [73] . Additionally, such patients recorded higher scores then normal on harm avoidance traits [74] .…”

Chronic pain conditions are currently the most common and economically-burdensome health ailment in the United States. The present article highlights and reviews multiple dimensions associated with chronic pain including; biological, phsycial, psychological and social factors that all need to be assessed and treated simultaneously. This article will review research in several dimensions that are affected by chronic pain which include the economic impact of chronic pain, the current issues with the biomedical approach of treating pain, advantages to the biopsychosocial approach for pain management, and how pain is associated with physical deconditioning, postural control, gait, sleep quality, and psychosocial well-being. Most importantly, this article corroborates with the reviewed research that the biopsychosocial model of pain is the most appropriate model for addressing the aforementioned factors circumscribing such conditions. Finally, this article will underline the development of interdisciplinary interventions, such as functional restoration, that have shown to be both therapeutic and cost-effective in managing chronic pain.
