We set out to evaluate the friendships and social behaviour of school-aged children with migraine. Concern exists regarding the impact of paediatric migraine on daily activities and quality of life. We hypothesized that children with migraine would have fewer friends and be identified as more socially sensitive and isolated than comparison peers. Sixty-nine children with migraine participated in a school-based study of social functioning. A comparison sample without migraine included classmates matched for gender, race and age. Children with migraine had fewer friends at school; however, this effect was limited to those in elementary school. Behavioural difficulties were not found. Middle-school students with migraine were identified by peers as displaying higher levels of leadership and popularity than comparison peers. Concern may be warranted about the social functioning of pre-adolescent children with migraine; however, older children with migraine may function as well as or better than their peers.
我们着手评估患有偏头痛的学龄儿童的友谊和社交行为。人们对儿童偏头痛对日常活动和生活质量的影响存在担忧。我们假设，与对照同龄人相比，患有偏头痛的儿童朋友较少，且被认为在社交方面更敏感、更孤立。69名患有偏头痛的儿童参与了一项基于学校的社交功能研究。一个没有偏头痛的对照样本包括在性别、种族和年龄上匹配的同班同学。患有偏头痛的儿童在学校的朋友较少；然而，这种影响仅限于小学生。未发现行为困难。与对照同龄人相比，患有偏头痛的中学生被同龄人认为表现出更高水平的领导力和受欢迎程度。对于患有偏头痛的青春期前儿童的社交功能可能需要担忧；然而，年龄较大的患有偏头痛的儿童可能与同龄人表现相当或更好。
