Investigating acceptance in adjustment to chronic pain: Is acceptance broader than we thought?
Research on the role of acceptance in adjustment to persisting pain has been facilitated by the development of the Chronic Pain Acceptance Questionnaire (CPAQ). However, to date the CPAQ has been used to explore acceptance of pain without taking into account the likely contribution of other cognitive variables that have been shown to influence adjustment to persisting pain.

Adjustment to chronic pain: The role of pain acceptance, coping strategies, and pain-related cognitions
Background: Previous research has found that acceptance of pain is more successful than coping variables in predicting adjustment to pain. Purpose: To compare the influence of acceptance, pain-related cognitions and coping in adjustment to chronic pain. Methods: One hundred seventeen chronic pain patients attending the Clinical Pain Unit were administered a battery of questionnaires assessing pain acceptance, active and passive coping, pain-related cognitions, and adjustment.

Abstract
The Chronic Pain Acceptance Questionnaire: Confirmatory Factor Analysis and Identification of Patient Subgroups
Over the past decade, the importance of acceptance of chronic pain has been demonstrated. Acceptance has often been assessed using the 20 item, two factor Chronic Pain Acceptance Questionnaire (CPAQ; McCracken, Vowles, & Eccleston, Pain 2004;107:159-166). This two factor model has been supported but awaits further confirmation. The present investigation sought to address this issue in two large samples of pain suffers.
