Abstract

Over 80% of National Football League (NFL) retirees experience daily pain. Pain acceptance is an important psychological construct implicated in the intensity of chronic pain, though these findings have not been extended to NFL retirees. Therefore, the current study examined the association between pain acceptance and pain intensity among former NFL athletes. NFL retirees (N = 90) recruited from 2018 to 2019 completed questionnaires that assessed pain, substance use, and NFL career information. Multiple linear regression examined the association between current pain acceptance and pain intensity while adjusting for other risk factors of pain. NFL retirees reported average scores of 33.31 (SD = 10.00), and 2.18 (SD = 2.40) on measures of pain acceptance and pain intensity, respectively. After covariate adjustment, greater pain acceptance (β = -0.538, p < .001) was associated with lower pain intensity. These findings can further inform the behavioral and mental health care of retired NFL athletes.

国家橄榄球联盟退役运动员的疼痛接受:对临床干预的影响。

超过80%的美国国家橄榄球联盟(NFL)退休人员每天都会感到疼痛。疼痛接受是一种重要的心理结构，涉及慢性疼痛的强度，尽管这些发现尚未扩展到NFL退休人员。因此，本研究考察了前NFL运动员的疼痛接受度和疼痛强度之间的关系。从2018年到2019年招募的NFL退休人员(N = 90)完成了评估疼痛、药物使用和NFL职业信息的问卷调查。多元线性回归检验了当前疼痛接受度与疼痛强度之间的关系，同时调整了其他疼痛风险因素。NFL退休人员报告的疼痛接受度和疼痛强度的平均得分分别为33.31 (SD = 10.00)和2.18 (SD = 2.40)。协变量调整后，更大的疼痛接受度(β = -0.538, p < 0.001)与更低的疼痛强度相关。这些发现可以进一步为退役NFL运动员的行为和心理健康护理提供信息。
