abstract="This study assesses how adolescents describe the experience of pain. We queried a convenience sample of 156 adolescents, 13-17 years of age, in two schools and four hospitals. Adolescents answered questions on a questionnaire developed by the investigators. Findings suggest that adolescents can clearly describe pain, their feelings when in pain, and the strategies that help when they experience pain. Pain appears to be associated with mental anguish as well as trauma and pathology.   <p>Language: en</p>",
