Abstract

The goal of this observational project was to investigate the association among perceived pain interference and poor psychological wellbeing in United States adults. Adults over 18 years of age in the 2019 Medical Expenditure Panel Survey were eligible for inclusion if they were alive for the calendar year and had data available for their pain status. Hierarchical logistical regression examined statistically significant associations among perceived pain interference and poor psychological wellbeing. Results showed that greater levels of perceived pain interference were significantly related with larger odds of reporting poor psychological wellbeing. Additionally, several other variables were related with larger or lower odds of reporting poor psychological wellbeing. These findings provide insight into the effect of perceived pain interference and other variables with poor psychological wellbeing, which may help recuperate the psychological wellbeing of US adults with pain.
