“…In a series of mediation models, Park & Sonty (69) showed that PA, but not NA, was a significant mediator in the relationship of coping self-efficacy and pain interference in daily life among a group of patients with a wide range of chronic pain conditions. PA also uniquely mediated the effect of trait psychological resilience on pain catastrophizing in a sample of older adults with chronic pain (70).…”

This narrative review summarizes and integrates the available literature on PA and pain to: 1) Provide a brief overview of PA and summarize the key findings that have emerged in the study of PA and chronic pain; 2) Provide a theoretical foundation from which to understand how PA operates in the context of chronic pain; and 3) Highlight how the prevailing psychosocial treatments for chronic pain address PA in the therapeutic context, and offer suggestions for how future treatment development research can maximize the benefit of PA for patients with chronic pain. To that end, we review experimental studies that have assessed the association of evoked PA and pain sensitivity, as well as clinical studies that have assessed the association of naturally occurring PA and clinical pain in the context of chronic pain. The evidence suggests PA influences pain, over and above the influence of NA. We offer an “upward spiral” model of positive affect, resilience and pain self-management, which makes specific predictions that PA will buffer maladaptive cognitive and affective responses to pain, and promote active engagement in valued goals that enhance chronic pain self-management.

“…The relation between affect and social functioning has been investigated, in particular using clinical samples. It has been found that in young adults and adults (18–68 years old) PA has been positively related to social functioning scores [ 22 – 24 ] whereas NA has been related negatively [ 25 – 27 ]. The very few studies examining this relationship in community samples have focused on young adults and adults (18–35 years old).…”

Positive and negative affect as predictors of social functioning in Spanish children

The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between affect in its two commonly used theoretical categories, positive affect (PA) and negative affect (NA), and social functioning dimensions (school performance, family relationships, peer relationships and home duties/self-care). The sample comprised 390 students of primary education aged 8–11 years (M = 9.39; SD = 1.15). The short-form of the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule for children (PANAS-C-SF) and the Child and Adolescent Social Adaptive Functioning Scale (CASAFS) were used. Student’s t tests indicated that those reporting high levels on all the social functioning dimensions also reported significantly higher levels of PA than peers who reported low levels; by contrast, students reporting high levels of social functioning reported significantly lower levels of NA than peers who reported low levels. Similarly, logistic regression analyses showed that an increase in PA increased probability of high levels of social functioning, and that an increase in NA decreased the probability of presenting high levels of social functioning dimensions, with the exception of school performance. These results expand the PA and NA relationship with social functioning reported in adults to Spanish children, which is potentially of interest in the fields of Education and Psychology.

“…However, kinesiophobia was not correlated to performance, despite being important for some categories of satisfaction (Table 5). Our comprehensive review identified three objective intervention alternatives, all of them finally culminating with a coping process: the practice of exercise for functional reestablishment [16], pacing [17], and coping itself [18] [17] reported a study with 32 subjects with osteoarthritis of the knee or hip who were randomized to two pacing interventions. One group received general instructions on activity pacing such as pre-planning activities, alternating activity with rest before exacerbation of symptoms, and the other group received personalized guidance based on detailed data on the relationship between developed activity and symptoms.…”

“…However, there was no significant impact on the control of clinical pain in any of the groups. Park and Sonty's study [18] retrospectively assessed 106 subjects with non-cancer chronic pain. They observed that there was a direct correlation between positive emotions and coping efficacy considering the interference of pain in the subject's social activities.…”

Objective: To assess the satisfaction and occupational performance of women with chronic pelvic pain and to discuss unassisted intervention strategies by the occupational therapist for the care of these patients. Methods: A case-control study was conducted on 75 women with chronic pelvic pain and 75 apparently healthy women. The study was approved by the Research Ethics Committee of the institution and all subjects gave written informed consent to participate. Pain intensity was determined using a visual analogue scale and each patient was submitted to psychometric assessment using the Patient Health Questionnaire, the Self-Reporting Questionnaire of Psychiatric Screening and the Tampa Scale of Kinesiophofobia in their Brazilian version. The main outcomes regarding occupational performance and satisfaction were evaluated using the Canadian Measure of Occupational Performance. Results: The performance and satisfaction scores of women with chronic pelvic pain were significantly lower than those of healthy women. The presence of pain and kinesophobia was directly and independently correlated with low performance and satisfaction scores regardless of ethnicity, marital status, schooling, or psychometric scores. Conclusion: women with chronic pelvic pain present significant impairment of satisfaction and occupational performance. Coping is a potential unassisted intervention strategy to be applied to this population by occupational therapists.
