Childhood negative early life events and pain in adolescence: a birth cohort study

Aims and purpose of the proposed research
The proposed study will examine whether negative early life events in childhood predict pain in adolescence. To do so the study will examine the following hypotheses:
1) Negative early life events in childhood (pre-natal, birth and early childhood) predict musculoskeletal pain in adolescence
2) Negative early life events in childhood (pre-natal, birth and early childhood) predict chronic widespread pain in adolescence
3) These relationships are moderated by physiological and psychological factors including HPA axis dysfunction, sleep, anxiety and depression.
