研究1采用疼痛灾难化量表（PCS）对425名大学生进行问卷调查。分析得出了一个由三部分组成的解决方案，包括(a)反刍，(b)放大和(c)无助。在研究2中，30名本科生参与者根据他们的PCS分数被分为灾难化者（n = 15）和非灾难化者（n = 15），并参与了冷压程序。与非灾难者相比，灾难者报告了更多与疼痛相关的消极想法，更大的情绪困扰和更大的疼痛强度。研究3检查了28名接受厌恶电诊断医疗程序的个体的PCS分数、消极疼痛相关思想和痛苦之间的关系。灾难者比非灾难者报告了更多与痛苦相关的消极想法，更多的情绪困扰和更多的痛苦。研究4检验了PCS与抑郁、特质焦虑、消极情感和疼痛恐惧的关系。分析显示这些测量之间存在适度的相关性，但只有PCS对疼痛强度的预测有显著的独特差异。
In Study 1, the Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS) was administered to 425 undergraduates. Analyses yielded a three component solution comprising( a) rumination, (b) magnification, and (c)helplessness. In Study 2, 30 undergraduate participants were classified as catastrophizers (n = 15) or noncatastrophizers (n = 15) on the basis of their PCS scores and participated in an cold presser procedure. Catastrophizers reported significantly more negative pain-related thoughts, greater emotional distress, and greater pain intensity than noncatastrophizers. Study 3 examined the relation between PCS scores, negative pain-related thoughts, and distress in 28 individuals undergoing an aversive electrodiagnostic medical procedure. Catastrophizers reported more negative pain-related thoughts, more emotional distress, and more pain than noncatastrophizers. Study 4 examined the relation between the PCS and measures of depression, trait anxiety, negative affectivity, and fear of pain. Analyses revealed moderate correlations among these measures, but only the PCS contributed significant unique variance to the prediction of pain intensity.
