No Intervention

Arm Label

Behavioral Intervention

Wait-list with no treatment

Arm Description

The study intervention arm was a behavioral treatment that consisted of training resilient intrinsic self-regulation strategies to help alleviate chronic pain.

The control comparison arm consisted of a wait-list condition in which participants received no treatment during a time interval comparable to the intervention arm.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of a resilience intervention in Veterans with chronic pain compared to wait list control.
Detailed Description
After being consented and screened for eligibility, participants completed baseline assessments and then were randomized to either the study intervention or wait list control. Participants who were randomized to the study intervention completed post testing assessment measures within two weeks of the final treatment. Participants who were randomized to waitlist conditions completed post testing assessment measures within 2 weeks of the end of the waitlist condition and then subsequently received the study intervention.
