This 2-year follow-up study examined the effects of a brief behavioral intervention on task-based coping and pain reactivity to the cold pressor task (CPT). In the original study by Fanurik et al. (1993), 64 children (aged 8 to 10) whose coping style was categorized as "attender" or "distracter," based on primary coping strategy during baseline CPT trials, received a 5-minute intervention (attention-focusing, distraction training, or control, randomly assigned). In the present study, 51 (32 female) of the original sample were readministered the CPT, and their coping style and pain responsivity were reassessed. Both distracters and attenders given distraction training preferred use of distraction at follow-up. The distraction training group also demonstrated greater tolerance at follow-up compared to controls, although pain ratings did not differ by intervention group. Our findings suggest that a brief distraction intervention has long-term effects on task-based coping and experimental pain reactivity.
这项为期两年的随访研究考察了一种简短行为干预对基于任务的应对方式以及对冷加压任务（CPT）的疼痛反应性的影响。在Fanurik等人（1993年）的原始研究中，64名儿童（年龄在8至10岁之间），根据基线CPT试验期间的主要应对策略，其应对方式被归类为“关注者”或“分散注意力者”，接受了5分钟的干预（注意力聚焦、分散注意力训练或对照，随机分配）。在本研究中，原始样本中的51名（32名女性）再次接受了CPT测试，并重新评估了他们的应对方式和疼痛反应性。接受分散注意力训练的分散注意力者和关注者在随访时都更倾向于使用分散注意力的方法。与对照组相比，分散注意力训练组在随访时也表现出更高的耐受性，尽管各干预组的疼痛评分没有差异。我们的研究结果表明，简短的分散注意力干预对基于任务的应对方式和实验性疼痛反应性具有长期影响。
