Knowing Pains: Women on Love, Sex and Work in our 40s

Product Description: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic neurological disease primarily diagnosed in young adulthood. However, a proportion of MS patients have onset during childhood and adolescence. Very little is known about the psychosocial impact of MS on this population. This qualitative study explored the psychosocial experiences of ado­lescents with early-onset MS. In particular, an emphasis was placed on examining peer relationships and social behaviours in relation to these experiences. Data analysis was derived from grounded theory, which provided a framework for examining and categorizing interview data into themes. The categories were then constructed logically and sys­tematically into a theoretical model which represented the data. Through this innovative grounded theory, a theoretical paradigm for understanding the psychosocial experiences of adolescents with MS was developed.
