A previous study testing a theory of chronic pain in elders with arthritis found that pain, disability and social support explained only 35% of the variance in their emotional distress. It is possible that demands, other than chronic pain, such as financial hardship, also contribute to these elders\u2019 stress and depression.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Method.\u2002<\/jats:bold>The theory was tested with 235 elders with arthritis using a secondary data analysis strategy. Data were obtained from the study of Ageing, Status, and Sense of Control carried out in 1998 in the United States of America. Variables were constructed from original questionnaires.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results.\u2002<\/jats:bold>The hypothesized model fitted the data only moderately well (<jats:italic>\u03c7<\/jats:italic><jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\u2003=\u200340\u00b704, d.f\u2003=\u20036,<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2003&lt;\u20030\u00b70001; CFI\u2003=\u20030\u00b788; NFI\u2003=\u20030\u00b788). Disability and financial hardship positively predicted distress, while social support and age had a reverse impact on distress, which explained 24% of the variance in distress. This means that elders with higher levels of disability, more financial hardship, less social support or younger age are likely to have higher levels of distress. Distress alone explained 33% of the variance in depressive symptoms. A data\u2010derived model was created with excellent fit (<jats:italic>\u03c7<\/jats:italic><jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\u2003=\u20033; d.f.\u2003=\u20034;<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2003=\u20030\u00b756; CFI\u2003=\u20031\u00b700; NFI\u2003=\u20030\u00b799), showing that disability, social support, financial hardship and age predicted distress (<jats:italic>R<\/jats:italic><jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\u2003=\u20030\u00b724). Pain, disability and distress predicted depression (<jats:italic>R<\/jats:italic><jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\u2003=\u20030\u00b744).<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusions.\u2002<\/jats:bold>The results partially supported the theory. Exploring the possibility of using depression as part of the control process and removing gender as a residual stimulus may lead to further refinement of the theory. The findings allow nurses to have a better understanding of the experiences of elders with arthritis, and thus to offer appropriate care to meet their needs.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-2648.2005.03481.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2005,6,17]],"date-time":"2005-06-17T15:05:06Z","timestamp":1119020706000},"page":"158-165","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":22,"title":["Predictors of distress and depression in elders with arthritic pain"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"51","author":[{"given":"Pao\u2010Feng","family":"Tsai","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2005,6,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_9_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/00223989809599166"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/geronj\/46.4.P174"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_4_1","first-page":"3","volume-title":"The Roy Adaptation Model.
