Does Adolescent Coping Moderate the Relation between Parental Minimizing Behavior and Adolescents Somatic Complaints?
As outlined in Table IV, there were significant main effects for passive, active, and accommodative coping predicting adolescent’s somatic symptoms; however, none of the interaction terms was significant. For the passive coping model, 20% of the variance in somatic symptoms was explained by pain ratings, pain diagnosis, passive coping, and parental minimization. Similarly, 23% of the variance in somatic complaints was explained by pain ratings, pain diagnosis, passive coping, and parental minimization. Lastly, 15% of the variance in somatic complaints was accounted for in the accommodative coping model.
