Book excerpt: Pediatric chronic pain conditions have become more prevalent over the past 25 years, particularly among adolescents. Chronic pain is associated with changes in biological, psychological, and social domains of functioning. It is especially important to better understand these adolescents’ social functioning in the realm of peer relationships, as adolescence is a developmental period during which peers become primary sources of support and attachment needs and can serve as a buffer against stressors. An increased understanding of how adolescents with chronic pain perceive their peer relationships is necessary to set a foundation for future research and increase providers’ knowledge of social factors associated with chronic pain. To explore the perspective of adolescents with chronic pain on their peer relationships, 18 adolescents with chronic pain and nine caregivers participated in focus groups as part of a larger study at Connecticut Children’s hospital. Several questions targeted adolescents’ experiences with peer relationships. Qualitative grounded theory analysis indicated four main categories to encompass the changes and reactions adolescents with chronic pain experience regarding their peer relationships. Adolescents with chronic pain and their caregivers described social disruptions, positive friendship features, peer victimization, and reactions to peer relationship changes. Across focus groups, adolescents provided a nuanced understanding of changes to their peer relationships, including both negative and positive aspects. Caregivers tended to provide more insight into their children’s emotional and behavioral reactions to changes in their peer relationships. Underlying the categories was a sense that adolescents with chronic pain experience significant complications to their lives, which impacts their ability to receive and seek out support from peers. Exacerbating this pattern is the consensus that healthy peers do not understand chronic pain, which impacts their ability to provide support to adolescents with chronic pain and may increase activities such as isolation, misunderstanding, and peer victimization. Further, as adolescents with chronic pain feel they will not be adequately supported by peers, they may increase their isolation from peers, which in turn reduces peers’ opportunity to learn more about chronic pain. Despite these limitations in peer interactions, adolescents with chronic pain identified sources of resiliency within themselves and ways in which their peers have provided them with support. The knowledge gained from this study regarding both negative and positive peer interactions among adolescents with chronic pain will inform future clinical practice and research, when study limitations are taken into consideration.

Download or read book Social and Interpersonal Dynamics in Pain written by Tine Vervoort and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-07-18 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This groundbreaking analysis moves our knowledge of pain and its effects from the biomedical model to one accounting for its complex psychosocial dimensions. Starting with its facial and physical display, pain is shown in its manifold social contexts—in the lifespan, in a family unit, expressed by a member of a gender and/or race—and as observed by others. These observations by caregivers and family are shown as vital to the social dynamic of pain—as observers react to sufferers’ pain, and as these reactions affect those suffering. The book’s findings should enhance practitioners’ understanding of pain to develop more effective individualized treatments for clients’ pain experience, and inspire researchers as well. Among the topics covered: Why do we care? Evolutionary mechanisms in the social dimension of pain. When, how, and why do we express pain? On the overlap between physical and social pain. Facing others in pain: why context matters. Caregiving impact upon sufferers’ cognitive functioning. Targeting individual and interpersonal processes in therapeutic interventions for chronic pain. Social and Interpersonal Dynamics in Pain will be a valuable resource for clinicians who deal in pain practice and management, as well as for students and researchers interested in the social, interpersonal, and emotional variables that contribute to pain, the processes with which pain is associated, and the psychology of pain in general.

Work and pain: A lifespan development approach investigates and guides the reader on understanding how and why people seek to be occupied, and how we can maximise their social and personal involvement when living with ongoing pain, suggesting ways forward in research, practice, and policy.
