  • 6. Results
  • 7. Conclusion

4
1.1. The biopsychosocial model of pain
  • The Gate Control Theory
  • Melzack Wall (1965)
  • Multidimensional model of pain
  • 4 components sensory-discriminative
  • affective-emotional
  • cognitive
  • behavioral
  • Definition of the IASP

5
1.2. Models of Personality
  • Trait ? State Model
  • (Cottraux Blackburn, 1995)
  • Big Five Model (Digman, 1990)
  • The Five-Factor Theory
  • (McAdams, 1996 Costa McCrae, 1999)

6
1.3. Coping and correlates
  • Dispositional vs. Situational approach
  • Coping styles vs. Coping responses
  • Regulating role vs. Outcomes
  • Adjustment vs. Adaptation

7
1.4. Model proposed
  • Structural approach
  • Postulate Regularities in behavior
  • Type of relationship between variables
  • A three-level hierarchical model

9
2. Goal
  • Answer this question
  • Does taking into consideration usual patterns of
    cognition and behavior allow a better
    understanding of specific cognitive-behavioral
    responses to the experience of chronic pain ?

11
3. Definitions
  • A theoretical position constrains
  • the definition of concepts
  • the operationalization of variables

12
3.1. Usual patterns of behavior
  • Three levels of patterns
  • personality dimensions (Big Five)
  • coping styles
  • usual coping responses to pain
  • characterized by
  • temporal stability
  • cross-situational consistency

13
3.2. Components of adjustment
  • Sensory component of pain
  • Sensory / affective descriptors
  • Functional component Impact on everyday
    life
  • Emotional component
  • Depressive / Anxious states

  • 4. Hypotheses

  • 6. Results
  • 7. Conclusion

15
4.1. Main Hypothesis
  • Chronic pain patients adopt specific pain-related
    behaviors that depend on their personality traits
    and coping styles
  • The components of their adjustment to pain
    are related to their usual patterns of behavior

16
4.2. Operationalization
  • The relationship between usual patterns of
    behavior and specific pain-related adjustment
    responses differs according to the aspect of pain
    experience measured
  • intensity and description of pain
  • functional status (daily activities)
  • emotional state (depression, anxiety)

  • 7. Conclusion

18
5.1. Population and Sample
  • Outpatients from a multidisciplinary pain clinic
  • A specific category of pain patients
  • An heterogeneous sample.
  • Random diversity of pathologies
  • Average duration of pain 7.8 years

19
5.2. Measures of usual patterns of
behavior
  • 3 degrees of predictors
  • Personality traits
  • Coping styles
  • Coping responses to pain
  • D5D
  • CISS
  • CSQ

20
5.3. Measures of pain adjustment
  • 4 categories of outcome variables
  • Intensity of pain
  • Description of pain
  • Functional impact
  • Emotional impact

  • 2. Goal
  • 3. Definitions
  • 4. Hypotheses

38
7. Conclusion
  • Usual patterns of behavior
  • distal variables personality
  • proximal variables coping
  • ? are significantly correlated with the
    components of pain adjustment
  • ? Different patterns of predictors with different
    aspects of adjustment

39
7. Conclusion Personality Dimensions
  • Neuroticism is associated
  • with poorer adjustment to pain
  • Emotional stability, openness, and
    conscientiousness are associated
  • with better adjustment to pain

40
7. Conclusion Coping Styles
  • Emotion-oriented coping is associated with poorer
    adjustment to pain
  • Task-oriented coping and avoidance are associated
    with better adjustment to pain

41
7. Conclusion Coping responses to pain
  • Catastrophizing, praying and hoping, and
    distraction are associated with poorer adjustment
    to pain
  • Coping self-statements and reinterpreting
    sensations are associated with better adjustment
    to pain
