Description

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the predictive factors for pain catastrophizing. Patients: Eighteen patients who have had lower back pain for more than 3 months. Methods: Patients rated their pain intensity by using a visual analogue scale and completed the following questionnaires: the pain catastrophizing scale (PCS), short-form McGill pain questionnaire, pain disability assessment scale, hospital anxiety and depression scale (HADS), and sense of coherence (SOC) scale. Multiple regression analyses were used to correlate the results of the questionnaires to PCS. Results: The results showed that HADS and SOC were associated with PCS. Conclusion: Anxiety, depression, and a sense of coherence might predict pain catastrophizing.
