Abstract: PURPOSE: To evaluate the utility of a biopsychosocial model to predict long-term adjustment to lower-limb amputation and phantom limb pain (PLP). METHOD: One month after lower-limb amputation, 70 participants completed measures of PLP intensity, cognitions (catastrophizing, perceived control over pain), coping (pain-contingent rest), social environment (social support, solicitous responding), and functioning (pain interference, depressive symptoms). The measures of functioning were administered again at 1- and 2-years post-amputation. Multiple regression analyses were used to examine the ability of the psychosocial variables at 1-month post-amputation to predict changes in the functioning measures over time. RESULTS: The psychosocial variables at 1-month post-amputation, controlling for initial PLP intensity, accounted for 21% of the variance in change in depressive symptoms at 1-year (p < 0.05), and 27% and 22% (p's < 0.01 and 0.05, respectively) of the variance in change in pain interference and depressive symptoms, respectively, at 2-years post-amputation. Catastrophizing and social support were associated with decreases (improvement) in both criterion measures, while solicitous responding was associated with increases (worsening) in both measures. DISCUSSION: The findings support a biopsychosocial model of long-term adjustment to amputation and PLP. In addition, results suggest that some psychosocial variables are more important than others for predicting adjustment, providing important implications for early interventions after amputation.
