The aim of the present study was to test Turk and Okifuji's (2002) model of chronic pain and in particular the moderating role of self-efficacy. We assessed 207 consecutive chronic pain patients (53.1% female) on a range of relevant measures and tested the model using structured equation modelling. The model was supported. These results support Turk and Okifuji's model of chronic pain and suggest that it can account for the relationships between variables in chronic pain patients. In particular, the results support the central role of fear-based avoidance and self-efficacy in chronic pain. Future research should be aimed at testing the alternative contemporary models of chronic pain at different stages of the development and maintenance of chronic pain and over time.
本研究旨在验证 Turk 和 Okifuji(2002)的慢性疼痛模型,特别是自我效能的调节作用。我们对 207 名连续的慢性疼痛患者(53.1%为女性)进行了一系列相关测量,并使用结构方程模型对模型进行了测试。模型得到了支持。这些结果支持了 Turk 和 Okifuji 的慢性疼痛模型,并表明它可以解释慢性疼痛患者变量之间的关系。特别是,结果支持了基于恐惧的回避和自我效能在慢性疼痛中的核心作用。未来的研究应该旨在测试慢性疼痛的替代当代模型在慢性疼痛的发展和维持的不同阶段以及随时间的变化。
