Purpose
The Psychosocial Research SIG is an interdisciplinary group of clinicians and researchers interested in psychosocial aspects of pain, including cognitive, emotional, social, and behavioural domains, as well as factors that influence the experience of acute and persistent pain. The SIG has a strong membership base with a range of experiences and expertise. A SIG meeting is held yearly at the APS Annual Scientific Meeting.

Communication Tool
Membership in the Psychosocial Research SIG allows you the benefit of participating in an APS-sponsored listserv. This forum offers community members an exchange for sharing best practices, asking questions, offering helpful information, and networking. The listserv also facilitates communication regarding relevant employment, postdoctoral, and funding opportunities. To post a message to all members, send an e-mail to APSPsychosocialResearchSIG@lists.americanpainsociety.org.
Please keep in mind that you can only send messages to the listserv from the e-mail address you provided in your member profile. If you are having difficulties using this listserv, please e-mail the APS Listserv Administrator at list@americanpainsociety.org.
