Abstract
Prior research has demonstrated that a number of psychosocial factors have been associated with the experience of pain in children. Such factors include the family system as a context within which NLE experienced by a family member may impact other family members through the transmission of stress as well as by modeling of responses to stressors. Additionally, characteristics and behaviors of a family member, such as somatization, may be transmitted to other members through similar processes. This study examined mother-experienced NLE, mother somatization, child age and child sex in relation to children’s responses to heat and pressure laboratory pain tasks in 165 healthy mother-child dyads [84 male; 8–17 years old (M=12.1, SD=2.6)].
