Efficacy of cognitive therapy for chronic low back pain
Abstract
The effects of outpatient group cognitive therapy, relaxation training, and cognitive therapy in combination with relaxation training on chronic low back pain and associated physical and psychosocial disability were evaluated and compared. One-hundred and two mildly disabled chronic low back pain patients were assigned randomly to a waiting-list (WL) control condition and the 3 treatments. Patient self-report and observational measures were obtained pretreatment and post-treatment for all conditions, and at 6- and 12-month follow-ups for the treatment conditions. Pain intensity decreased significantly pre- to post-treatment for patients in all 3 treatment conditions, but not the WL condition. Depressive symptoms and disability improved significantly in all conditions (including the waiting list) from pretreatment to post-treatment, with no statistically significant differences among treatments. At both follow-ups, all 3 treatment groups remained significantly improved from pretreatment, with no statistically significant differences between treatments.

“Relaxation training and imagery were chosen as the ‘established behavioral intervention’ because of previous research (Turner 1982; Linton and Gotestam 1984; Philips 1988) indicating their efficacy for chronic pain.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
