Abstract

Past research which has been interpreted as support for a psychological etiology of menstrual distress is critically reviewed. This research is analyzed with respect to methodological issues such as the assessment of menstrual distress, the measurement of psychological parameters, and statistical procedures and with respect to experimenter bias apparent in the interpretation of results. It is concluded that the available empirical evidence is inadequate to support psychological causation of menstrual distress.
