Abstract:
The role of psychological factors in the experience and expression of pain has been the topic of spirited debate for decades. Today, there is little room for debate; numerous research studies have provided convincing evidence that psychological factors play an important role in the experience and expression of pain. The questions of interest today no longer concern whether psychological factors play a role in pain experience, but rather, what psychological factors are implicated in pain experience, how psychological factors exert their influence on pain experience, and what the implications are for the treatment of pain. Our work has focused on the role of catastrophic thinking in the experience of chronic pain. This presentation will summarize what is currently known about the influence of catastrophic thinking on pain experience, and how this research contributed to the development of risk-targeted interventions aimed at reducing the magnitude of disability associated with chronic pain. This presentation will also highlight some of the challenges faced in efforts to change the clinical practice patterns of service providers who treat individuals with disabling chronic pain.
