This NIH-funded research aims to study how parent-child interactions affect pain assessment in children with IDD who cannot verbally report pain, to improve pain management strategies.
Description
Research project to improve understanding of dynamic and reciprocal processes influencing how parents rate and respond to pain in children with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) who have difficulty expressing themselves verbally. The project involves recruiting parent-child dyads, video recording during blood draws, and collecting data on children's adaptive behavior and parental pain-related beliefs.
