An investigation of the associations between stigma, self-compassion, and pain outcomes during treatment based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy for chronic pain
Overview
This study examines how changes in stigma and self-compassion relate to pain outcomes within an interdisciplinary Acceptance and Commitment Therapy program for chronic pain. Researchers analyzed data from over 500 patients, finding that while self-compassion and pain outcomes improved significantly during treatment, stigma levels did not change. The results suggest that improvements in self-compassion are negatively correlated with changes in stigma and associated with better treatment outcomes, though self-compassion did not moderate the relationship between stigma and pain.
