在一项针对20名患有偏头痛的男孩和女孩的比较研究中,研究人员对儿童偏头痛的性格和行为特征进行了调查,这些儿童的年龄和性别与20名患有肌肉骨骼疼痛的“疼痛”对照组和20名“无疼痛”对照组的儿童相匹配。当儿童经历的疼痛量得到控制时,唯一的区别变量是躯体症状,包括呕吐、恶心和知觉障碍,所有与偏头痛相关的现象。包括“疼痛”控制组在内的调查结果表明,被认为是儿童偏头痛特征的行为和人格特征在慢性疼痛障碍中是常见的,事实上,许多这些特征的表现与所经历的疼痛程度直接相关。这表明,许多儿童偏头痛患者明显的个性和行为特征可能是由反复发作的慢性疼痛引起的,而不是以某种方式引起疼痛的。
Personality and behavioural features in pediatric migraine were investigated in a comparison study of 20 boys and girls with migraine, matched for age and sex with a "pain" control group of 20 children with musculoskeletal pain, and with a "no-pain" control group of 20 children. When the amount of pain experienced by children was controlled, the only discriminating variable was that of somatic complaints which included vomiting nausea, and perceptual disturbances, all migraine-related phenomena. The inclusion of the "pain" control group in this investigation yielded results which indicated that the behavioural and personality features thought to be characteristic of childhood migraine are common to a chronic pain disorder and in fact, the manifestation of many of these features correlate directly with the amont of pain experienced. It is suggested that the personality and behavioural characteristics evident in many children with migraine may result from the recurrent chronic pain episodes rather than in some way being causative of the pain.
