Pain from work related musculoskeletal disorders among fruit farmers is a health problem
that requires appropriate pain management behaviors. This predictive correlational research aimed
to describe pain management behaviors and to determine factors influencing pain management
behaviors. Multi-stage random sampling was used to recruit 262 participants of fruit farmers in
Chanthaburi province. Research instruments were interviews including basic information, the pain
management knowledge, the pain management attitudes, the perceived self-efficacy, the health
service accessibility, the social support perception, and the pain management behaviors. Their
reliabilities were .84 .89 .93 .92 .93 and .95 respectively. Descriptive statistics and stepwise
multiple regression statistics were performed to analyze the data.
The results revealed that the pain management behaviors among participants in overall and
in each dimension were rated at a good level. The pain treatment behavior dimension was the
higher score than the muscle rehabilitation behavior dimension. The perceived self-efficacy, the
health service accessibility, the social support perception, and the pain management knowledge
could together explain 49.2% (R2 = .492, p < .001) of the variance accounted for the pain
management behaviors.
Conclusion: These findings suggest that nurses and other health personnel should develop
the program to promote the pain management behaviors in fruit farmers through increasing the
perceived self-efficacy and the pain management knowledge, as well as promoting access to
health services and supporting family, friends, and important people to participate in pain
management. Consequently, the appropriate pain management and the quality of life of fruit
farmers would be increased.
