Processes of behavior change in interdisciplinary treatment of chronic pain: Contributions of pain intensity, catastrophizing, a
Cognitive behavioral therapy has a substantial evidence base with regard to its effectiveness for individuals with chronic pain. Historically, although there has been some investigation in to the processes by which treatment succeeds or fails, few data are available regarding the unique contributions of processes from distinct cognitive behavioral approaches and how these processes may interact to affect patient functioning.

Patient functioning and catastrophizing in chronic pain: The mediating effects of acceptance.
Objective: Catastrophic thinking is associated with disability and distress for many with chronic pain. The effects of catastrophic thinking likely rely not only on the content or frequency of the thoughts, but also on other cognitive, behavioral, and environmental influences that are present.
