Variability in Infant Acute Pain Responding Meaningfully Obscured By Averaging Pain Responses
(Pain, 2013)
Given the inherent variability in pain responding, using an
"average" pain score may pose serious threats to internal and external
validity of current research findings. Using growth mixture modeling
(GMM), the paper ...
A cross-sectional examination of the relationships between caregiver proximal soothing and infant pain over the first year of life
(Pain, 2013)
Although previous research has examined the relationships between caregiver proximal
soothing and infant pain, there is a paucity of work taking infant age into account, despite the steep

Predicting preschool pain-related anticipatory distress: the relative contribution of longitudinal and concurrent factors
(Pain, 2016)
Anticipatory distress prior to a painful medical procedure can lead to negative sequelae

in ...
Infant pain-regulation as an early predictor of childhood temperament

in pain-related distress response may be an indicator of temperament ...
A longitudinal examination of verbal reassurance during infant immunization: Occurrence and examination of emotional availability as a potential moderator
(Journal of Pediatric Psychology, 2012)

This study investigated the associations between caregiver verbal reassurance and infant pain-related distress during immunization over the first year of life. The relationships between verbal reassurance and ...
Preschool children’s coping responses and outcomes in the vaccination context: child and caregiver transactional and longitudinal relationships
(Wolters Kluwer, 2017)
This article, based on 2 companion studies, presents an in-depth analysis of preschoolers coping with vaccination pain. Study 1 used an autoregressive cross-lagged path model to investigate the dynamic and reciprocal ...
Naturalistic Parental Pain Management During Immunizations over the First Year of Life: Observational Norms from the OUCH Cohort
(Pain, 2013)
No research to date has descriptively catalogued what parents
of healthy infants are naturalistically doing to manage their infant's
pain over immunization appointments across the first year of life. This
knowledge, in ...
The influence of culture on maternal soothing behaviours and infant pain expression in the immunization context.
(Pain and Research Management, 2011)
ObJecTiVe: To investigate how maternal culture (ie, individualist versus
collectivist) influences soothing techniques and infant distress.
MeThOdS: Archival data were analyzed using a subsample of 80 motherinfant
dyads ...
Developing a Measure of Distress-Promoting Parent Behaviours During Infant Vaccination: Assessing Reliability and Validity
(Canadian Journal of Pain, 2018)
Background: Infants rely on their parents’ sensitive and contingent soothing to support their regulation from pain-related distress. However, despite being of potentially equal or greater import, there has been little focus ...
