Regression models to predict the 3 latent pain response factors by the 3 latent psychological factors, controlling for sex.

Model 1 – Predicting Pain Intensity Factor

Summary statistics Predictor variables Standardized β t P-value
R2 = 0.08 Pain-or Body Sensitivity Factor .21 1.66 .10
Adj R2 = 0.02 Positive Affect Factor -.16 -1.27 .21
F = 1.37 Negative Affect Factor -.15 -1.20 .23
p = 0.26 Sex .004 0.03 .97
Model 2 – Predicting Pain Tolerance factor

Summary statistics Predictor variables Standardized β t P-value
R2 = 0.15 Pain-or Body Sensitivity Factor -.09 -.73 .47
Adj R2 = 0.10 Positive Affect Factor -.14 -1.15 .25
F = 2.78 Negative Affect Factor .13 1.12 .27
p = 0.03* Sex -.33 -2.75 .008
