An evaluation of a one-day pain science education event in a 16–18 years school setting targeting pain-related beliefs, knowledge, and behavioural intentions: A mixed-methods, non-randomised controlled trial
Background
Public understanding of persistent pain is fraught with misconceptions. Pain education in schools may improve public understanding long-term. This study evaluated the impact of a one-day Pain Science Education (PSE) public health event delivered in a 16–18 year old school setting.
Methods
This was a multi-site, non-randomised controlled, mixed-methods study with three data collection time points: baseline, post intervention, and three-month follow-up. Participants were high school students ≥16 years old. Pain beliefs, knowledge, and behavioural intentions were assessed with the Pain Beliefs Questionnaire (PBQ [organic and psychological subscales]), Concepts of Pain Inventory (COPI-Adult), a case vignette, and reflexive thematic analysis of semi-structured interviews.
Results
Thirty intervention (mean age 16.6 years, 37 % female, 63 % male) and 24 control group participants (16.9 years, 63 % female, 37 % male) were recruited. Attending the pain education event was associated with reductions in Organic Beliefs [mean difference −4.4 (95 % CI, −6.0, −1.9)] and increases in Psychological Beliefs [4.6 (2.7, 6.4)] compared to the control group. This represents a shift away from biomedical beliefs in the intervention group compared to the control group. This shift was partially sustained at 3 months. A similar pattern was seen for the COPI-Adult and case vignette assessments. Semi-structured interviews (n = 13) identified an increased awareness of chronic pain and varying degrees of reconceptualisation of pain towards a biopsychosocial understanding.
Conclusions
Attendance at a one-day PSE-based public health event was associated with improved knowledge, beliefs, and behavioural intentions regarding persistent pain. This exploratory study supports the need for a robust mixed-methods RCT of pain education for school children with long-term follow-up.
