Recent studies have reported a positive relation between stressors (e.g., daily hassles and/or life events) and the number and severity of headaches reported by headache sufferers. However, Watson and Clark (1984) have suggested that positive stress-outcome relationships reported in the literature may be misleading, since stress and outcome variables have been shown to be mediated by the construct of Negative Affectivity (NA).

520 $a Recent studies have reported a positive relation between stressors (e.g., daily hassles and/or life events) and the number and severity of headaches reported by headache sufferers. However, Watson and Clark (1984) have suggested that positive stress-outcome relationships reported in the literature may be misleading, since stress and outcome variables have been shown to be mediated by the construct of Negative Affectivity (NA).
520 $a The present study tested the mediating effects of NA in the relation between Daily Hassles (DH) and the number and severity of headaches in a sample of 162 outpatient chronic headache sufferers. Subjects completed the Hassles Scale, the Positive and Negative Affectivity Scales, The Headache-Specific Locus of Control Scale and the Ways of Coping Questionnaire.
520 $a Partial correlation and Regression analyses showed that number and severity of DH were significantly positively correlated with number of headaches. However, when controlling for NA, these correlations were eliminated (i.e., almost zero). Number and severity of DH were also significantly positively correlated with the severity of headaches. These correlations were significantly reduced to almost half their size when the effects of NA were statistically controlled. Significant positive correlations were found between number and severity of DH and number and severity of headaches. Positive Affectivity (PA) was negatively correlated with the number of headaches reported. External Locus of Control (Chance) was positively correlated with number of headaches reported. Significant positive correlations were found between NA and coping strategies such as Escape-Avoidance, Taking Responsibility (self-blame), and Self-controlling coping. Positive Affectivity on the other hand, was positively correlated with Problem-Solving, Positive Reappraisal, and Seeking Social Support.
520 $a These results highlight the role of NA as a mediator in the relation between stress and the persistence of headaches among chronic headache sufferers. In addition, NA and PA seem to play key roles in predicting the types of coping strategies (i.e., Emotion-focused vs Problem-focused coping) utilized by individuals suffering from chronic headaches.
