Therefore, these variables were not used as covariates
in further analyses. Next, a multiple regression analysis
was conducted to analyze whether pain intensity,
depressive symptoms and/or maternal history of chronic
pain were associated with school absences (parent report)
in adolescents attending regular school. Pain intensity was
entered in the first step of the regression analyses, followed
by depressive symptoms and maternal pain history, in
order to examine the effects of the latter variables after
accounting for pain intensity. The role of depressive symptoms
was further explored by comparing adolescents with
high versus low levels of school absences (based upon a
median split of the distribution of school absences) using
an independent samples t-test. Finally, t-tests were conducted
to compare parent report of school absences in
adolescents with and without a diagnosis of anxiety
disorder, mood disorder, and attention deficit disorder
