Asking the crowd: Who has used a LEGO construction task to measure children's persistence, and could you share your protocol and/or published articles using the task? I have a student considering using this sort of measure with 1st and 4th graders. #PsychSciSky

interesting results on an audit of the GGC paediatric pain clinic showing an over-representation of neurodivergent children with chronic pain in the past 10 years!
Neurodivergent patients also showed higher prevalence of MSK pain & more disruptions to their daily life!
I have reached that time of the year where I simultaneously want the Christmas break to start tomorrow and want still >3 weeks before the break 🫤. One very stretched and exhausted academic mom over here!
My final year undergraduate student is looking for young people aged 16 to 30 years of age living with chronic pain for an exciting, creative study to learn more about pain management strategies!
If you are interested please get in touch 👇🏻
We conducted a qualitative study exploring the *individual* barriers adolescents face in achieving functional recovery from chronic pain. Using the 'Passenger on the Bus' metaphor, we aimed to identify the challenges that hinder their engagement with age-appropriate activities. #ChronicPain #ACT
