Acceptance- and mindfulness-based interventions for the treatment of chronic pain: a meta-analytic review
Overview
This meta-analytic review evaluates the efficacy of acceptance- and mindfulness-based interventions, such as ACT, MBSR, and MBCT, for chronic pain patients by analyzing 25 randomized controlled trials. The study compares these interventions against waitlist, treatment-as-usual, and control groups to assess outcomes including pain intensity, depression, anxiety, and quality of life. It reports effect sizes ranging from small to large at post-treatment and follow-up, noting that ACT demonstrated higher effects on depression and anxiety compared to other modalities.
