Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The study aims to test a mobile intervention on values and goals in chronic pain patients. The cognitive behavioral intervention is a 10-day course in which participants complete a brief intervention each day (about 10-20 minutes a day). The content of the intervention includes the definition of values; development of individualized values and personal value-oriented goals; and implementation of personal goals in every day life. To assess the effectiveness of the intervention, we use a multiple baseline single case design. Baseline measurements will be assessed daily between 10 and 17 days (the exact number will be randomized). Daily measurements will continue during the intervention. After the intervention, another post measurement will be collected.

Allocation Method

NA

Intervention Model

SINGLE_GROUP

Single case analysis with 10-17 pre-measurement time points; 10 measurement time points during the intervention; and one post-measurement.
Primary Study Purpose

TREATMENT

Blinding Strategy

NONE

No masking is required, as participants are fully informed about the purpose of the study. Since there is only one arm, masking of the investigators is also not necessary.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Mobile based values intervention for people with chronic pain

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Mobile intervention on values and goals in patients with chronic pain.

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

The protocol consists of 10 daily sessions, 10-20 Minutes each. After each session participants will complete daily measures. Participants will learn about values and a values based life. Further they will identify their own values and are encouraged to set a goal to pursue those values. Based on this, barriers to achieving goals are explained and a corresponding commitment will be made.
