Background

Musculoskeletal pain is one of the most common pains in patients referred to medical centers which may have a psychological basis. The aim of this study was to develop a structural model to explain the mediating role of catastrophizing pain, depression and anxiety between psychological flexibility and pain self-efficacy in patients with musculoskeletal pain.

Methods

In a cross-sectional study, 200 patients with chronic musculoskeletal pain were selected by convenience sampling method from those referred to medical centers affiliated to Isfahan University of Medical Sciences in 2020-2021. Eligible participants filled out: Chronic Pain Acceptance Questionnaire (CPAQ), Cognitive Fusion Questionnaire (CFQ), Self-Experience Questionnaire (SEQ), Value-based Life Questionnaire (VLQ), Committed Action Questionnaire (CAQ-8), Pain Self-Efficacy Questionnaire (PSEQ) and the Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS), Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS), and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Then the data were analyzed using SPSS-24 and AMOS software and statistical methods of regression analysis and structural equations.

Findings

The results showed that the direct effect coefficient of pain catastrophizing, anxiety, depression and psychological flexibility on pain self-efficacy is (0.357), (0.255), (0.127) and (0.849) respectively. The total relationship between psychological flexibility and pain self-efficacy is (0.346). To test the suitability of the models, NFI, TLI, CFI and IFI indices were used, which were within acceptable limits.

Conclusion

The psychological flexibility variable predicts pain self-efficacy mediated by catastrophic pain, depression and anxiety (P < 0.01, r = 0.85) and it appears that predicting pain catastrophe, depression, anxiety and psychological resilience can increase pain self-efficacy. Ultimately, the improvement of these psychological factors may affect the process of better disease management.
