The present study examined for the first time the possibility that personal Belief in a Just World (BJW) is a personal resource for healthcare professionals, irrespective of the demands they face in their everyday work life, and/or a coping resource for facing demands due to the higher perceived suffering of their patients. A total of 497 healthcare professionals (physicians and nurses) voluntarily consented to...

Interoceptive sensibility (IS)—the self-reported experience and relationship toward internal states—includes skills such as sensing, interpreting, and using bodily information for self-regulation. Current studies on IS and chronic pain (CP) adjustment are scarce, and how the interplay between different...
