Summary

Cognitive difficulties often occur with chronic pain. The aim of this randomised controlled trial is to determine whether various aspects of cognitive function can be improved. An 8-week course of cognitive training via a web-based training program (3 times per week) will be contrasted with watching informative documentary videos (for the same length of time). Outcomes include subjective and objective measures of cognition, as well as self-report measures of mood and pain.
