Summary

This study is designed to determine if a brief educational program can alter the attitudes and knowledge of individuals with chronic back pain, which is likely to be non-structural in nature.

Individuals will be randomly assigned to an experimental condition (performs written educational and emotional awareness exercises) or a control condition (completes a general health activities questionnaire). Comparisons will be made to assess the degree of centralized pain features and functional improvements at 1-month follow-up. A 10-month follow-up as a secondary endpoint is also planned.
