Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
• Adolescent chronic pain, especially when co-occurring with psychological distress, is associated with an increased risk of long-term sickness absence (LTSA) in early adulthood. • Relative differences in LTSA risk between health groups remained stable across cohorts despite changes in welfare policy. • Continuous- and discrete-time models showed comparable predictive performance, with no clear advantage of more complex methods. • Sociodemographic and early-life health factors influenced LTSA, highlighting adolescence as a key period for early identification and intervention.
