Özet
In this cross-sectional study, the authors investigated the relationships between chronic pain intensity and quality of life, pain coping strategies, and pain beliefs levels in 405 adult women. The participants with a mean age of 48.8 +/- 5.08 generally defined chronic pain intensity as moderate pain (x=7.17, sd = 2.01). There was a weak positive relationship between chronic pain intensity and the worrying dimension, one of the passive coping strategies, and a weak negative relationship with the retreating dimension. A weak negative relationship was identified between chronic pain intensity and pain beliefs levels, both organic beliefs and psychological beliefs sub-dimensions. The multivariate model identified by regression analysis explained 21.2% of the total chronic pain intensity variance. Our findings suggest that while chronic pain is undoubtedly a complex and multifaceted experience, understanding the psychosocial aspects of a person's life can shed valuable light on their pain levels and how they cope with them.
