在一个大样本(N=1,059)慢性疼痛患者中，研究了疼痛残疾指数(PDI)的因素结构和标准数据。结果支持PDI的单因素解决方案。对标准数据的分析表明，性别、年龄和疼痛持续时间的影响很小。相对较大的影响与赔偿状况、诉讼状况和疼痛发作的情况有关。工作患者报告的残疾程度低于非工作患者，诉讼患者报告的残疾高于非诉讼患者，工伤患者报告的残疾水平高于那些与工作无关的疼痛起因的患者。结果反映了以医院为基础的疼痛管理计划的患者的残疾水平，在比较其他患者组或研究样本的残疾水平时，可以作为参考点。
The factor structure and normative data for the Pain Disability Index (PDI) were examined in a large (N = 1,059) sample of chronic pain patients. The results support a one-factor solution for the PDI. Analyses of normative data indicated very small effects associated with gender, age, and pain duration. Relatively larger effects were associated with compensation status, litigation status, and circumstances of pain onset. Working patients reported less disability than their nonworking counterparts, litigating patients reported more disability than nonlitigants, and patients injured at work reported higher levels of disability than those with pain origins unrelated to work. The results reflect the disability level of patients referred to a hospital-based pain management program and may be useful as a reference point when comparing disability levels of other patient groups or research samples.
